Let Me Sing

I wanna open up my eyes
 And see a more beautiful world
 Let the hand of God Almighty
 Sweep his colors through my life
 I wanna hold tight to the laughter
 And ride it like a child
 On the winds that billow joyful
 Through the sky
 I wanna 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 wanna stand my ground unshaken
 But I wanna 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 wanna open up Your word
 And let the thirsty enter in
 So they can drink deep of the water
 You have 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 wanna open up my arms
 And embrace that old rugged cross
 I wanna take pride in the reason
 And be humbled by the cause
 And when this lisping, stamm'ring 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
