Nothing But Your Glory LYRICS
(Jacque Darragh)
Nothing But Your Glory
Justify my soul, O God
And fill my will with fire
Shine in my mind, O God
And occupy my heart with Your life
Refrain:
Let my eyes see nothing but Your glory
Let my hands touch only for Your service
Let my tongue taste no bread
that does not strengthen me
To praise You for Your great mercy
Let my eyes see nothing but Your glory
Let my hands touch only for Your service
Let me use all things for one sole reason:
to find my joy in giving You glory.
Keep me from all sin, O God
And unrequired activity
Disguising my great cowardice
In order to escape sacrifice
Give me strength that waits on You
In silence and in peace
Give me your humility
Possess my heart and soul with Your love
