All I Ever Wanted Lyrics

From where I lay I can see the sun rising through the trees
Before I face this morning rush I get down on my knees
I lift my eyes and I thank You for this life you've granted me
I pray that every day I live, Your heart will be pleased
Chorus:
I pray for hands that hold You higher than anything else
And a heart that loves You more than life itself
This is all I've ever wanted, this is all I want to be
All I've ever wanted is to love You faithfully
[ / [/

From where I stand I can see the dreams that You have fulfilled
Such kindness I did not deserve, but You gave it still
What do I have that You did not give, there's nothing that I can see
So all I have to give to You is what You've given me
[ / [/

I know I don't have the power to love You like I should
But every day with everything I have I wish I could
I'm standing here now, these words I pray
I wanna love You better whatever it takes
