Glad Is My Heart

Glad is my heart, Lord
joyful and wild
Oh, all the wonders
of being your child!

You open my eyelids
and cause me to smile
a whispered "good morning"
lingers for a while

You've painted a sunrise!
Oh glorious day!
My spirit is lively
as I start to pray

Your presence engulfs me,
the thrill of your peace!
You know me; transform me
that You may increase

Almighty Creator
My Friend and my Father
My Rock and Redeemer
My Lord and my Lover

My God and my Guidance
My Power and Portion
My Light and my Reason
My only Salvation

Your joy is my strength
your delight is my song
My freedom is in you
to You I belong

Lead me to your path, Lord
and teach me your ways
that I would walk with you
for all of my days
