In Joyful Reverence
Father, fill this weary heart,
With your Spirit, your presence!
Infuse my mind with reverence,
Beyond ideas of human art!
May an aroma, a Holy essence,
Melt my anxious heart!
This day is a new start;
Live for you in Holy reverence!
Break sin’s pride apart,
By awareness of your presence!
Heaven is more than severance,
The gift of a new heart!
Bear Jesus’ Name in reverence,
By Holy Spirit, not apart!
No Jesus in carnal heart!
In Jesus, I enter God’s presence!
Praise from faith’s heart,
Grateful raise in pleasing essence!
Worship offer in awed reverence,
Giving day a joyful start!
