Let me celebrate this moment
As I kneel here in Your presence
And I lift my joyful hands up to Your throne
Though my troubles may distress me
You have always seen to bless me
And You’ve never let me face them all alone.

How I revel in the beauty of creation
How I smile at all the workings of Your hand
Ev’ry creature is a marvel of perfection
Every person has a purpose in Your plan

Though today I am so saddened
I know You’ll make my heart gladdened
If I only turn to You and ask You to.
I only need to look around me
And Your blessings will astound me
For You’ve always been so faithful, through and through

How can I ever thank You for Your mercy?
How can I now express my gratitude?
That You gave Your life for me is such a wonder
For You and You alone have been so good.

Let me celebrate this moment
As I kneel here in Your presence
Let all things I do bring glory to Your Name
May I never cease to praise You
May I always seek to serve You
For Your mercy is from age to age, the same.
