WHEN I SEE YOU
I've been wrestling a lot with the following scripture:

It is the glory of God to conceal a matter;
To search out a matter is the glory of kings.
(Proverbs 25:2)

And so, out of wrestling came something new....


WHEN I SEE YOU

There are times I cannot see
It's Your glory to hide
And when I search for You
My own glory I will find

But it's the not the glory of a king
That my heart desires to see

It is You, it is You
It's Your face, it's Your feet
It is You, it's Your beauty
It's the way that I'm complete
When I see You

My deepest longing is to be
At the feet of my King
Where I will pour out fragrant oil
As a costly offering

And though Your glory makes my face shine
It's not my glory that I look to find

It is You, it is You
It's Your face, it's Your feet
It is You, it's Your beauty
It's the way that I'm complete

It is You, it is You
It's the wisdom in Your eyes
It is You, it's Your presence
It's the rescue that I find
When I see You

With my eyes open wide
My heart will sing:
Hosanna to the King!
While Your glory surrounds
With my face to the ground:
Hosanna to the King!
Hosanna to the King!
Hosanna to the King!

It is You, it is You
It's Your face, it's Your feet
It is You, it's Your beauty
It's the way that I'm complete
When I
see You
