When I think about the Lord

When I think about the Lord
It makes me want to sing
He is my light and my strength
Lifting the weight so I can breathe
I am humbled by his power
His mercy his love
He frees me of myself
From below to above
I live Him
Speak Him
Seek Him all my days
I lift Him
I give Him praise
I cry, I feel almost like I could die
And still I praise him
I still have faith
Although my heart is breaking
I’m trapped with no escape
Yet I know it is He who brings me heartache
Brings me pleasure, brings me pain
To burn me down to ashes
So that I may rise again
So that I may fly about the world
And sing of all he’s done
