Jeff Deyo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's one thing that I ask
Just one thing I seek
To delight myself in you
To live all my days
Announcing your fame
To delight myself in you, in you

I just want to sing to you
I just want to life my voice in praise
I just want to worship you
I just want to shout aloud your name
I just want to stand her ein your glory, Lord
And dance in Heaven's light
I just want to sing to you

I've only one prayer
And only one plea
To delight myself in you
To spend all my life
Revealing your might
To delight myself in you, in you

I lift my eyes to you
I fall on my face




I lift my soul to you
I give all the praise
