*Let Me Sing*
Andrew Peterson
I want to open up my eyes
And see a more beautiful world
Let the hand of God Almighty
Sweep His colors through my life
I want to hold tight to the laughter
And ride it like a child
On the winds that billow joyful
Through the sky

I want to open up my heart
But you know sometimes it's hard to find
Because I've buried it beneath the selfishness
That I've hidden behind
I want to stand my ground unshaken
But I want to tremble when I kneel
And let my song remain unbroken
Through the tears

So let me sing for the love
Let me love for the lost
Let me lose all I have
For what I found on the cross
Let me trust You with my life
Let me live to give You praise
Lord, let me praise You
For the grace by which I'm saved
Lord, let me sing

I want to open up Your word
And let the thirsty enter in
So they can drink deep of the water
That You've given to them
I want to run the race with vigor
I want to fight the fight with strength
And let my song rise from a whisper to a scream

I want to open up my arms
And embrace that old rugged cross
I want to take pride in the reason
And be humbled by the cause
And when this lisping, stammering tongue
Lies silent in the grave
Then in a nobler, sweeter song
I'll sing Your praise
I'll sing Your praise

So let me sing for the love
Let me love for the lost
Let me lose all I have
For what I found on the cross
Let me trust You with my life
Let me live to give You praise
Lord, let me praise You
For the grace by which I'm saved
Lord, let me sing
