Gloria/Friend for Life
I wish I could crash like the waves
Or turn like the autumn leaves
In effort to praise You
I wish I could smell like the forest
The fragrance lifting a mighty chorus
In effort to praise You
In effort to praise You
(chorus)
But I'm such a limited creature
And my words can only paint so many pictures
But somewhere I think I read that I am
Treasured over all creation
So I know that I must try
I wish I could roll like the thunder
To leave the earth below in wonder
In effort to praise You, yeah
I wish I could fall like the summer rain
And every drop would sing Your name
In effort to praise You
In effort to praise You
(chorus)
Gloria, glory in the highest
Forever I will hide myself in Thee
Gloria, glory in excelsis deo
Gloria, Gloria
Every breath that I breathe
Every moment in my history
Is an effort to praise You
An effort to praise You
...
Friend for life
Who took my pain
The cleansing flood
You remain
Wash over me
Till I can't be seen
Living water swallow me
Deepest river wash me clean
Jesus, savior more of Thee
Jesus, more of Thee
Come and ruin me with Your love
So no other is enough
Come and leave Your mark on me
Jesus, more of Thee
Jesus, more of Thee
Deep is the stain
Inside of me
But deeper the river
That washes me clean
I've been the one
Who cries in the night
But you've been
The friend of my life
Living water swallow me
Deepest river wash me clean
Jesus savior more of Thee
Jesus, more of Thee
Come and ruin me with Your love
So no other is enough
Come and leave Your mark on me
Jesus, more of Thee
Jesus, more of Thee
Or turn like the autumn leaves
In effort to praise You
I wish I could smell like the forest
The fragrance lifting a mighty chorus
In effort to praise You
In effort to praise You
(chorus)
But I'm such a limited creature
And my words can only paint so many pictures
But somewhere I think I read that I am
Treasured over all creation
So I know that I must try
I wish I could roll like the thunder
To leave the earth below in wonder
In effort to praise You, yeah
I wish I could fall like the summer rain
And every drop would sing Your name
In effort to praise You
In effort to praise You
(chorus)
Gloria, glory in the highest
Forever I will hide myself in Thee
Gloria, glory in excelsis deo
Gloria, Gloria
Every breath that I breathe
Every moment in my history
Is an effort to praise You
An effort to praise You
...
Friend for life
Who took my pain
The cleansing flood
You remain
Wash over me
Till I can't be seen
Living water swallow me
Deepest river wash me clean
Jesus, savior more of Thee
Jesus, more of Thee
Come and ruin me with Your love
So no other is enough
Come and leave Your mark on me
Jesus, more of Thee
Jesus, more of Thee
Deep is the stain
Inside of me
But deeper the river
That washes me clean
I've been the one
Who cries in the night
But you've been
The friend of my life
Living water swallow me
Deepest river wash me clean
Jesus savior more of Thee
Jesus, more of Thee
Come and ruin me with Your love
So no other is enough
Come and leave Your mark on me
Jesus, more of Thee
Jesus, more of Thee
