Lyrics

Lord you alone are my prize and my portion
You hold my destiny and time in your hands
Oh Lord your paths lead me to pleasant places
I'm overwhelmed with all that comes from knowing you
I'm overwhelmed with all that comes from knowing you
Chorus
I'll praise you, I'll praise you, oh Lord I'll praise you
I'll praise you, I'll praise you, oh Lord I'll praise you
Vs 2
The way you guide me Lord, with your whispers in the night
Makes my heart cry out in worship
I set my heart and mind on you, keep you close to my side
My confidence will never fade
My confidence will never fade
Chorus
I'll praise you, I'll praise you, oh Lord I'll praise you
I'll praise you, I'll praise you, oh Lord I'll praise you

I experience your presence every morning
My heart and soul burst forth with fullness of joy
I can rest in your arms, safe and secure
You'll never leave me oh Yahweh
You'll never leave me oh Yahweh
Chorus
I'll praise you, I'll praise you, oh Lord I'll praise you
I'll praise you, I'll praise you, oh Lord I'll praise you
Bridge
I'll praise you in the morning, I'll praise you in the night
I'll praise you in the stillness, I'll praise you in the fight
I'll praise you for the victory, before it ever comes
For you are my strong tower, and you have overcome
Chorus
I'll praise you, I'll praise you, oh Lord I'll praise you
I'll praise you, I'll praise you, oh Lord I'll praise you
