THE GLORY OF GOD

    My eyes are filled with the glory of God

When Christ on the cross I see

    And I think how He left His heavenly home

To die on that cross for me

.

My ears are filled with the glory of God

When I think of His Holy word, 

how in the stillness after prayer

His gentle voice is heard.

    My heart is filled with the glory of God

When I think of His love that lives there

    And I feel all around me the presence,

Of His great love everywhere.

    My days are filled with the glory of God

When I ask Jesus to guide my ways

    And I know that He ever is with me,

To God be the glory and praise.

My nights are filled with the glory of God

    When I think of the peace that He gives,

To rest in the quiet assurance,

That within my heart He lives.

    The world is filled with the glory of God

But no words can truly proclaim.

The measure of His love and mercy

Or the beauty of His Holy Name.
