Almighty God, you are our gold and precious silver;
we lift up our face to you, delight in you.
In the shadow of your wings we sing for joy;
you have been our help.
What you promised long before his coming
you fulfilled in Jesus.
He came that we may have life,
and have it abundantly.
we lift up our face to you, delight in you.
In the shadow of your wings we sing for joy;
you have been our help.
What you promised long before his coming
you fulfilled in Jesus.
He came that we may have life,
and have it abundantly.
