Song | Once I Prayed |
Artist | Phil Keaggy |
Album | Way Back Home |
作曲 : Keaggy, McDowell | |
Once I prayed, | |
I knew not what | |
I said. Show me myself, oh | |
Lord, Alas | |
I did not dread | |
The hideous sight which now | |
I shudder to behold, | |
Because I knew not self-aright. | |
And I was led in answer to my prayer, | |
As step by step to see | |
My wretched heart lay bare. | |
Then I prayed, | |
Stay, Lord, | |
I cannot bear the sight. | |
And pityingly | |
His hand was stayed, | |
His hand was stayed. | |
Now I pray, | |
I know that prayer is right, | |
Show me Thyself, oh | |
Lord, Be to myself the | |
Bright and | |
Morning Star | |
To shine upon the grave of self | |
And lead my heart from earth afar, | |
From earth afar. |
