Verse 1
I said, “O Lord, I cannot speak,
I’m just a child, my voice is weak.”
But You reached down with your power,
And stirred my soul with bold desire.
Pre-Chorus
You said, “Don’t fear their faces,
I go with you through all the places.”
Your hand stretched out, and touched me deep,
Your words were sown for me to keep.
Chorus
Touch my lips, O Lord divine,
Put Your truth and power in mine.
Though I tremble, though I fall,
You are strength when I am small.
I will speak though I am young,
With Your fire upon my tongue—
Touch my lips and make me bold,
With Your message to be told.
Verse 2
You knew my name before my birth,
And set me for this time on earth.
To nations great, to kingdoms fall,
You’ve made my heart to hear Your call.
Pre-Chorus
No more excuses, no more delay,
For You will guide me all the way.
You fill my mouth with truth to say,
And light my path along the way.
Chorus
Touch my lips, O Lord divine,
Put Your truth and power in mine.
Though I tremble, though I fall,
You are strength when I am small.
I will speak though I am young,
With Your fire upon my tongue—
Touch my lips and make me bold,
With Your message to be told.
Bridge
Not by might and not by age,
You choose the weak to shake the stage.
Your Word burns bright, it won’t be still,
Your purpose moves through yielded will.
Chorus
Touch my lips, O Lord divine,
Put Your truth and power in mine.
Though I tremble, though I fall,
You are strength when I am small.
I will speak though I am young,
With Your fire upon my tongue—
Touch my lips and make me bold,
With Your message to be told.
Outro
So here I stand with heart aflame,
Sent by You, in Jesus’ name.
