Worthy I am not to be here

Worthy not I to be at Your feet

Worthy not I to be with You

Worthy not my Master to greet

 

Wondrous You are, dear Lord

Wondrous are Your ways

Wondrous that You love me

Wondrous You love always

 

Worship I do with all my heart

Worship with psalms and song

Worship with arms lifted high

With You, O Lord, I belong

 

O, sweet melody fills my heart

A song of joy and praise

My Savior redeems and renews

To Him my heart I raise

 

The King of kings, the Almighty

He suffered a crown of thorns for me

The Shepherd Himself led as a Lamb

Sacrificing Himself for humanity

 

Precious Lord, what did You ponder

As they led You Calvary Way?

You embraced the Cross they gave

That I may be with You one day

 

Sweet Savior, what thoughts were Yours

When they pierced Your hands and feet?

You thought of the children You would save

In Heaven someday each one to meet

 

My God, my Master, what did You say

When You they did scourge and mock?

You asked Your Father to forgive them

As You longed to gather Your flock

 

Tremble with awe does my heart

Both humbled and amazed am I

My Savior thought lovingly of me

When Him they did crucify

 

The depth of Your love is unfathomable

Could indeed these truths be so?

Yes, my Savior’s love transcends thought

He loves me more than I can know

 

Rejoice, my soul, in my Lord

Stand in awe of His eternal love

Enthrone my King in my heart

In glory He reigns Above

 

Lord, nothing I can give to You

Will come close to all You give me

Please accept the gift of myself

For I give all of myself to Thee

 

Love You more I do each day

Closer I long to be with You

I desire to know Your Ways

 To cling to all that is True

 

Master, I kneel before You

Take all I have, all who I am

I pour of myself for You

As You did for me, Precious Lamb

 

Worthy I am not to be here

Worthy not I to be at Your feet

Worthy not I to be with You

Worthy not my Master to greet

 

Wondrous You are, dear Lord

Wondrous are Your ways

Wondrous that You love me

Wondrous You love always

 

Worship I do with all my heart

Worship with psalms and song

Worship with arms lifted high

With You, O Lord, I belong

    “Please accept the gift of me”
    So humbling to offer ourselves to Him, to open ourselves completely, without fear or reservation but instead with joy and anticipation of what He will do through us.
    Thanks for the lift today!
