I Delight in Your
Will
.
Lyrics
adapted from Psalm 40
Patiently I sought the Lord;
He has heard my cry,
and he has drawn me up
And made my steps secure.
And I said, “Behold I come
in the steps of my Savior before me.
Behold I come to you!”
I delight in your will, oh my God; and your law is within my heart. And I come to serve your Word. And I will speak of your
steadfast love And I’ll tell of your
faithfulness. Yes, I come to do your will, For you have set me free.
Sacrifice and offering you do not desire
But you have given me an open ear, Oh
Lord.
And I said, “Behold I come
in the steps of my Savior before me.
Behold I come to you!”
I delight in your will, oh my God; and your law is within my heart. And I come to serve your Word. And I will speak of your
steadfast love And I’ll tell of your
faithfulness. Yes, I come to do your will, For you have set me free.
Great is the Lord! Great is the Lord!
Let all who love him say it:
Great is the Lord!
