Ps 51:7

"Wash me with hyssop and I shall be clean; Wash me and I shall be whiter than snow..."

Make my heart to always know,
the love and mercy you've always shown.

May my eyes always see,
The wonderful things you've done for me.

Help me to find joy in sorrows,
and never worry about tomorrows.

Bring the sins not in sight,
out of the darkness; Into your light.

With your blood remove my stains -
No more guilt, no more shame.

When my heart is filled with pain,
be my comfort, send the rain.

Oh to be held in your arms,
there is peace, I'm not alone.

You give me hope, you make me strong.

A perfect love, how can it be,
that you'd find delight,
in (the likes of me)

...a wretch like me

Stand

I know I still love you.

Though I don't feel like I once did.

The romance has faded,

We're back from our trip.

Not wanting to leave,

I'm quite happy with you...HERE

HERE...I just feel the fire has grown dim,

Everything's so still.

But I WAIT

Not running away

On this covenant I've made,

I'll honor it.

"For richer or for poorer, In sickness and in health,"

til death unite us...and thereafter...

I choose today to take you Jesus,

In sickness and in sorrow.

In pain and in struggle.

To be both Lord and Savior

Both now and forevermore.

I will love you

JESUS I choose to love you

Emotions are dry,

Feelings are gone...

BUT i know, I Love You!

So i'll stand...

...knowing nothing else to do,

I'll just stand...

RIGHT HERE

RIGHT NOW

...and wait for you!

I praise you for where you've brought me

We've shared some rough years

In the midst of it all

You've covered me

and held my tears.

WE'VE come this far,

I'm not turning back...

...as for now,

I'll.....just.....stand!
