I wrote this waltz several months ago. Larry wrote most of the lyrics and I helped out a little. Please visit Larry's web site for more great music. - Elton, February 6, 1999
(Introduction)
(Verse 1)
Lord, I sing my praise to You.
I am born anew.
The day has dawned,
Your light has come,
Your love will see me through.
(Chorus)
You're my strength and my song --
In Your grace and Your love I belong --
You have ransomed my soul from the flame,
Now my spirit is free!
You are Savior and Lord
Risen up from the grave,
Giver of life, and so eager to save;
Praise to You evermore --
Mighty Savior and Lord --
Of Your glory and honor I sing,
My Creator, Redeemer, and King!
(Verse 2)
Jesus, You are Lord and King,
For Your praise I sing.
O Lord Most High,
The heavens cry
As tribute now I bring...
(Repeat chorus with ending)
You're my strength and my song --
In Your grace and Your love I belong --
You have ransomed my soul from the flame,
Now my spirit is free!
You are Savior and Lord
Risen up from the grave,
Giver of life, and so eager to save;
Praise to You evermore --
Mighty Savior and Lord --
Of Your glory and honor I sing,
To Your altar this gift now I bring,
My Creator, Redeemer, and King!
