Hymn
Welcoming Your Smiling Face
Appearing Before Me

I
You raised me from the dust
and into Your embrace.
You woke my heart from
the long and dark night's slumber.
Looking through my haze,
I see Your smiling face.
It draws my heart and my love.
Never dreamed I'd see Your face.
Such a blessing
has caught me by surprise.
Such a blessing
when I saw Your appearance.
For I am from the dust
and without any worth.
Yet the glorious Almighty God
has come to me face to face.
Quiet before You,
I listen when You talk.
Your words are gentle,
yet Your words are strong.
Judgment and chastisement
awaken my heart.
A love sincere and beautiful
that I'll always hold dear.
Your loveliness is beyond words.
It's wondrous!
Taken my heart, rousing my love too.
I've memorized Your every
lovely attribute.
It's my biggest wish
to give all my love to You.
Give all my love to You, to You.

II
Where are You, my dear God?
I lay awake all night.
Why do You hide from me?
No peace till I see Your face.
In pain my heart calls out,
looks to You with eagerness.
Your words guiding me,
it's like You're here before my face.
With Your words in my heart,
it's like You're with me by my side.
Your word is my life,
overtaking all my heart.
Living by Your word
gives me peace and joy.
I want to live Your word,
to glorify and witness You!
Quiet before You,
I listen when You talk.
Your words are gentle,
yet Your words are strong.
Judgment and chastisement
awaken my heart.
A love sincere and beautiful
that I'll always hold dear.
Your loveliness is beyond words.
It's wondrous!pray
Taken my heart, rousing my love too.
I've memorized Your every
lovely attribute.
It's my biggest wish
to give all my love to You.
Give all my love to You, to You.
III
I'll fulfill my duty
to repay Your love
and complete Your will.
I welcome Your smiling face
appearing before me.
It's my biggest wish
to give all my love to You.
I'll fulfill my duty
to repay Your love
and complete Your will.
I welcome Your smiling face
appearing before me.
It's my biggest wish
to give all my love to You.
