In the hustle and bustle of the Christmas season, may we not lose sight of the truth that His glory is what we truly long for – nothing else, and nothing less will satisfy us.
I Want To See Your Glory
I want to see Your glory, Lord, open up my eyes
to Your majesty, for I realize
that the things of earth and the pleasures here
are a fading mist soon to disappear.
Oh, soon they will disappear
I want to see Your glory, Lord, let Your splendor shine.
All I am is Yours; all You are is mine.
What the world would gain leads to emptiness.
Let me find my joy in Your radiance.
Oh, my joy’s in Your radiance.
Chorus:
Oh, the depths of Your wisdom
Oh, the breadth of Your love
Mercy beyond description
Raining down from above
Uncontainable riches
Unexplainable ways
Immanuel – God is with us
Undeniable grace…undeniable grace
I want to see Your glory, Lord, hear my desperate cry.
Let me drink from You, or I’m sure to die.
For this thirst within is such a pleasing pain -
it leads my longing soul to seek Your face again.
Oh, I’ll seek Your face again.
repeat chorus
I want to see Your glory, Lord, open up my eyes
I want to see Your glory, Lord, let Your splendor shine
I want to see Your glory, Lord, hear my desperate cry
For Your glory, Lord…it’s all about Your glory, Lord.
