Oh Lord, You’re Beautiful
By: Keith Green
Oh Lord, You're beautifulYour face is all I seeFor when Your eyes are on this childYour grace abounds to meOh Lord, please light the fireThat once burned bright and cleanReplace the lamp of my first loveThat burns with holy fearI want to take Your Word and shine it all aroundBut first help me just to live it, LordAnd when I'm doing well, help me to never seek a crownFor my reward is giving glory to You
Keith Green has always been one of my favourite musicians because so many of his songs have such beautiful lyrics. This song is an absolute favourite of mine:
Make My Life A Prayer To You
By: Keith Green
Make my life a prayer to You
I wanna do what You want me to
No empty words and no white lies
No token prayers no compromise
I wanna shine the light You gave
Through Your Son You sent to save us
From ourselves and our despair
It comforts me to know You're really there
Well I wanna thank You now
For being patient with me
Oh it's so hard to see
When my eyes are on me
I guess I'll have to trust
And just believe what You say
You're coming again
Coming to take me away
I wanna die and let You give
Your life to me so I might live
And share the hope You gave me
The love that set me free
I wanna tell the world out there
You're not some fable or fairy tale
That I've made up inside my head
You're God the Son and You've risen from the dead
