Chorus:
Like a tree by a stream
You’ll grow roots and bear fruit
When you find your delight
In the law of the Lord

You will be fulfilled when you shun the wickeds' ways,
When you don't stand in the way of the sinner.
You won't sit with those who scoff, but will contemplate the Law
Day and night, your delight is the Lord

Chorus:
Answer me quickly, Lord,
My spirit is failing
Do not hide Your face from me
Or I'll be like those in the grave
Let me hear mercy, Lord,
Lovingkindness at daybreak
In Your way won't You lead me
For I trust in You to save

Hear my prayer, oh Lord,
Give ear to my pleading
Righteous and faithful You are
So answer my entreaty
Judge me not, oh Lord,
For I am still Your servant
No one alive is righteous in Your sight

Chorus:
The Lord who loves me whole
Longs to lead me
And guide me into His way
So I will bare my soul,
I will admit my sin
To receive His freedom and grace

Blessed are you whose sins are forgiven,
Whose wrongs are out of sight
Whose slate the Lord has wiped clean
And whose heart is empty of lies

When I was silent and swallowed my sin
My strength was drained away
Lord, Your hand was heavy on me
Like a summer's heat night and day 

I have been given a gift; I have been given a promise
The more I pour my heart out, the more it will heal.
Jesus is all that I need; He hasn't left me with nothing--
But if these songs ever came between Him and me,
I would walk away; I would walk away.

I have examined my priorities to discover one good thing,
The thing that I must will, just to be pure.
It doesn't matter what good songs I sing, if I choose not to obey
The words my blessed Master has given to me.
It's the love I must be sure of, the love I must be sure of.

Can you live with the mystery?
Can you explain all that's inside of me?
Is it foolish to base your living belief
Only on what we can measure to be?

I have been to the ending of my understanding,
Where myst'ry begins
If I limit my living to what I can master,
I close myself in
I'm turning my back on the Source of the Wind
