PERFECT WISDOM OF OUR GOD
[Verse 1:]
The perfect wisdom of our God,
revealed in all the universe:
all things created by his hand,
and held together at His command.
[Chorus 1:]
He knows the mysteries of the seas,
the secrets of the stars are His;
He guides the planets on their way,
and turns the earth through another day.
[Verse 2:]
The matchless wisdom of His ways
that mark the path of righteousness
His word a lamp unto my feet
His spirit teaching and guiding me
[Chorus 2:]
and o the mystery of the cross
that God should suffer for the lost
so that the fool might shame the wise
and all the glory might go to Christ!
[Verse 3:]
O grant me wisdom from above,
to pray for peace and cling to love,
and teach me humbly to receive
the sun and rain of your sovereignty.
[Chorus 3:]
Each strand of sorrow has a place
within this tapestry of grace;
so through the trials I choose to say:
your perfect will in your perfect way.
[Ending:]
Each strand of sorrow has a place
within this tapestry of grace;
so through the trials I choose to say:
your perfect will in your perfect way.
[Verse 1:]
Lord, I come, I confess,
Bowing here, I find my rest
Without you I fall apart,
You’re the one
That guides my heart
[Chorus:]
Lord, I need you, oh I need you
Every hour I need you
My one defense, my righteousness,
Oh God, how I need you
[Verse 2:]
Where sin runs deep, Your grace is more
Where grace is found, is where you are
And where you are, Lord I am free,
Holiness is Christ in me
[Chorus:]
Lord, I need you, oh I need you
Every hour I need you
My one defense, my righteousness,
Oh God, how I need you
[Bridge:]
Teach my song to rise to you,
when temptation comes my way
And when I cannot stand I’ll fall on you,
Jesus, you’re my hope and stay
[Chorus:]
Lord, I need you, oh I need you
Every hour I need you
My one defense, my righteousness,
Oh God, how I need you
[Chorus:]
My one defense, my righteousness,
Oh God, how I need you
My one defense, my righteousness,
Oh God, how I need you
[Verse 1:]
Oh, I've heard a thousand stories
of what they think You're like
But I've heard the tender whisper
of love in the dead of night
And You tell me that You're pleased
And that I'm never alone
[Chorus:]
You're a Good, Good Father
It's who You are, It's who You are
It's who You are
And I'm loved by You
It's who I am, It's who I am
It's who I am
[Verse 2:]
Oh, I've seen many searching for
answers far and wide
But I know we're all searching
For answers only You provide
Cause You know just what we need
Before we say a word
[Chorus:]
You're a Good, Good Father
It's who You are, It's who You are
It's who You are
And I'm loved by You
It's who I am, It's who I am
It's who I am
[Bridge: x2]
Cause You are perfect in all of Your ways
You are perfect in all of Your ways
You are perfect in all of Your ways
to us
[Verse 3:]
Oh, it's love so undeniable
I, I can hardly speak
Peace so unexplainable
I, I can hardly think
As You call me deeper still
As You call me deeper still
As You call me deeper still
Into love, love, love
[Chorus: x2]
You're a Good, Good Father
It's who You are, It's who You are
It's who You are
And I'm loved by You
It's who I am, It's who I am
It's who I am
[Outro:]
You are perfect in all of Your ways
You are perfect in all of Your ways
