Great are You, Lord, and greatly to be praised, You made us for Yourself, our hearts will never rest Until they find their home in You— O Light that breaks my blindness, O Voice that calls me through The restless years of wandering, The pride that kept me far from You.
This is my confession: I was lost, but You have found me. You called my name, You broke my chains, Your mercy all around me. O Beauty ever ancient, O Beauty ever new— You were within, I was without, But now I run to You.
I chased the world’s illusions, I loved the things that fade, I tasted every pleasure, But only deeper grew my ache. You saw me in my darkness, You heard my silent cries, You sent Your Word, You sent Your Light, You opened up my eyes.
Too late I loved You, Yet You were always near— You called, You shone, You touched my soul, And now I see so clear. My heart is restless, Lord, Until it rests in Thee— O take my life, O take my love, And set my spirit free.
You teach me to remember That all good things are Yours, That every joy and sorrow Can lead me to Your door. You heal my wounds with mercy, You lift me when I fall, You teach me to confess my need, And trust You through it all.
This is my confession: I was lost, but You have found me. You called my name, You broke my chains, Your mercy all around me. O Beauty ever ancient, O Beauty ever new— You were within, I was without, But now I run to You.
Let me know You, Lord, as I am known, Let my soul rejoice in You alone. All my hope, my joy, my peace— Are found in Your embrace. This is my confession, This is my praise.
This is my confession: I was lost, but You have found me. You called my name, You broke my chains, Your mercy all around me. O Beauty ever ancient, O Beauty ever new— You were within, I was without, But now I run to You.
