V1 -That’s the only way you can fulfill me, so Lord fill me / see I want the whole world to feel me / Silly of me to think that I could do it on my own / and it’s like something happens every time we get alone / I love the quiet time in the morning because / It never fails when I leave I’ve got a buzz like WHOA! / Thinking about holiness though / Feelin’ all funny and walking all slow / Talking although, I’m under Your control / Paiting color pictures on the canvas of my soul / And now I’m on display for the world to see / Even though it’s all about You & not about me / Then I wonder why You gave me access to Your Son / when the Truth is I’m nothing but a wretch undone / Father, I don’t deserve You, but now I’ve got the nerve to / ask can I be in Your presence, that I might serve you

Hook x 2: In Your Presence is where I long to be, In Your Presence

V2 – It’s taken a couple of years to get from there to here / I’ve shed a couple of tears to erase the fear / but You removed my fears and You moved my tears / and You wouldn’t let me go when I was moved by my peers / and when I look back, I feel like a little boy / ‘cause only in Your presence can I find fullness of joy / There’s absolutely nothing like it, what can compare? / Hands raised in the air, on my face a blank stare / LORD, I’m totally dependent on You / If You ever saw fit to leave LORD, tell me what would I do? / ‘cause apart from You, I can do nothing but fail / And in Your presence is the place where my spirit’s goin’ dwell / I worship and adore You, put no one before You / I’m giving my life and living my life for You / I never saw a man cry, till I saw a man die, but a man that knows the LORD will weep, and now I know why . . .
