To Love Your Children Everywhere

Verse 1

I am, I am a child of God

For He loves me, for He loves me

Paid my debt and paid in blood

Hallelujah

And you, and you are just as I

For He loves you, for He loves you

And you will see it by and by

Hallelujah

Chorus:

Oh God of earth and sea and sky

God beside me, God on high

Be God, be God and bend my knee

Bow my head and open me

Be God, that this would be my prayer:

To love Your children everywhere

To love Your children everywhere

Verse 2:

Would you allow your heart to break

If He asked you, if He asked you?

And could you love me for His sake?

Could you love me for His sake?

Then kneel with me and take my hand

Call me “sister,” call me “friend”

And offer up your heart to Him

Chorus:

Oh God of earth and sea and sky

God beside me, God on high (extra measure)

Be God, be God and bend my knee

Bow my head and open me

Be God, that this would be my prayer:

To love Your children everywhere

Be God, be God and bend my knee

Bow my head and open me

Be God, that this would be my prayer:

To love Your children everywhere

To love Your children everywhere

To love Your children everywhere

Prayer of Thanksgiving

Verse 1:

Dear God of Light, Dear God of Love

Dear God, I know you see what I’m made of

This heart is false, this flesh is weak

These hands are empty, but you keep, you keep bringing me back to you

Chorus:

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelu

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelu

Verse 2:

Dear God of Heaven, God on High

Dear God, to think You’d walk beside me

Dear God of Hope, Dear God of Peace

To think You’d die to reclaim and release me

Chorus

Verse 3:

Dear, dear God, and what in life could be

Half so dear as drawing near to thee?

And still and still I turn and sin a – new

And still You’re God – And still You’re God

And still You’re God – And still You’re God

And you keep, you keep bringing me back to you (extra measure of E)

Chorus
