When first the Light of Jesus dawns
He breaks in truth the devil’s horns
God’s children see the darkness shrink
As evil’s chains fall link by link
You’ve touched my soul my God so dear
I feel Your presence ever near
I’m all afloat, stomach askew
Life’s so wonderful near to You
Oh Lord my God You’ve now my hand
You’re leading me towards Your land
I can’t sit still so full of zest
My heart thumps wild inside my chest
Within I feel the joys of spring
I love my God and everything-
Around is all creation vast
All is of You my First my Last
Sigh, Sigh, all I can do is sigh
To think of You my God on high
You pour me love I start to cry
Oh Lord my God, again I sigh
Salvation’s love has come my way
I feel it’s wonderful here today
I have my God my heart now sings
And seems to fly on eagles wings
It feels so good that now so oft
My heart takes flight, to rise aloft
I fly so high, oh my head reels
How exhilarating it feels
I speak in tongues, I’ve never heard
Thirst with fever, for every word
It’s not enough a while to read
I need direct from Christ to feed…
