Praise

Arms elevated toward the sun
Praising my Father, the Holy one
My creator, my savior, my guide 
The One that never leaves my side 

Perplexed how You can be 
My father, my brother, a friend to me 
Yet, here and now, I know it's true 
Turning my lowly heart anew 

I will unlock my heart and open it wide
I will give my decisions for You to decide
I will worship You in truth and in love 
I will tell the world the Son's raised above
I will love You, trust You, walk by Your side
I will know in my heart, with me, You abide 

Down on my knees, calling out strong 
Praise You are given, You've deserved all along
Radiant beams gleam from my soul 
Becoming like Jesus, my new life goal

Singing, dancing, giving You all 
Knowing without You, I'd surely fall
Living a life to bring You all glory
Understanding I'm sinful and You are All Holy

I will unlock my heart and open it wide 
I will give my decisions for You to decide
I will worship You in truth and in love 
I will tell the world the Son's raised above
I will love You, trust You, walk by Your side
I will know in my heart, with me, You abide

My sin is now gone, and You remain
Seeing my soul, clear as the rain
No longer dirty and filled with mud
Jesus has saved me with His love

Jesus, my Savior, died on the cross
No more tears shed for He has walked
He rose and strode away from the tomb
Now waiting in heaven with an open room

I will unlock my heart and open it wide
I will give my decisions for You to decide
I will worship You in truth and in love
I will tell the world the Son's raised above
I will love You, trust You, walk by Your side
I will know in my heart, with me, You abide
