Sanctuary
Todd Dulaney Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let my heart be a sanctuary
Let my mouth be filled with praise
Let our songs be never ending
Let our lives exalt Your name

We were created in Your image
Made in the likeness of who You are
Joined with the angels and all of creation
Singing as one to praise You God

So let my heart be a sanctuary
Let my mouth be filled with praise
Let our songs be never ending
Let our lives exalt Your name

Let my heart be a sanctuary
Let my mouth be filled with praise
Let our songs be never ending
Let our lives exalt Your name

Every breath, every step I'll pour out
On an altar of praise my life is found

Every breath, every step I'll pour out
On an altar of praise my life is found

Every breath, every step I'll pour out
On an altar of praise my life is found

Every breath, every step I'll pour out
On an altar of praise my life is found

Every breath, every step I'll pour out
On an altar of praise my life is found

Every breath, every step I'll pour out
On an altar of praise my life is found

Let my heart be a sanctuary
Let my mouth be filled with praise
Let our songs be never ending
Let our lives exalt Your name




Let our lives exalt Your name
Let our lives exalt Your name
