Because Of Who You Are
Sandi Patti Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You waved your hands and planets filled the empty skies
You placed the woman and the man inside the garden
And though they fell they found compassion in your eyes
[Bridge]
Oh Lord I stand amazed at the wonder of your deeds
[Chorus]
Lord I praise you, Because of who you are
Not just for all the mighty things that you have done
Lord I worship you, because of who you are
You're all the reason that I need to voice my praise
Because of who you are
One holy night you brought the promise from a virgin
And promise grew as he revealed to us your heart
Enduring love displayed through out his Crucifixion
And in the dark, you tore the grave and death apart
[Bridge]
[Chorus 2x]
