I long to know you better, day by day.
I want to draw much closer, when I pray.
to listen more intently, for your voice.
To let the things you choose, be my choice.

I long to serve you, hour by hour,
Depending, more entirely on your power.
I want to know more fully, what is your will.
To count upon your promise, and be still.

I long to find new beauties, in your word.
to follow in the footsteps, of my Lord.
And Oh, the greatest longing of them all,
By your grace, my eyes will see you, face to face.
