O Christmas Tree (Praise Him)

[solo trumpet instrumental] When I praise him My life is changed Each day in a new direction Every moment my pain is eased and I find my life is made complete The more I praise him The more I find him In the unspoken moments In between breaths God I know you’re there for me Because you care for me And you can form me Into life out of death They say everyone’s got their Limits But my God is Limitless On the cross, Jesus, you said it is Finished Who am I Trying to kid The more I search for Him The more I know Him The more I know Him The more I praise Him And when I serve Him I find that he is worth living for And worth striving to be more like My life being laid down as a living sacrifice That’s my greatest act of praise to Him I find my worth when I trade my worth of other things For only one thing The maker of all things Who is greater than everything That’s when I realize I don’t need to strive to be more or anything else than He created me to be Because He is perfect And didn’t make a mistake when creating me His plans for me are wonderful Premeditated before He created anything And amazing to see Unraveled like a present beneath a Christmas tree So I’ll sit here and praise You You are worth everything You can have everything My life, my hopes, my dreams It is an honor to be a servant for You I’m excited to see how you will use me Father in Heaven, great Your name is above all things Will you use me To bring even just a little more of your kingdom to this earth? Or live inside of me to accomplish your will, as I lay mine aside and your light gives birth To ways of loving others that I never thought of before Open doors To allow me to see Other presents beneath your Christmas tree Ways of serving you that bring you glory Bringing food and comfort to those in poverty Love and joy to those that are suffering Company and warmth to those that are lonely Your word to those that might not know you yet But that you have known since the beginning of creation And you have prepared good works for them to walk in Your children are precious to you and every human on this earth belongs to Thee Each a unique present under your Tree But we, myself included, just need to be reminded of our identity When I praise you I’m reminded of who you created me to be Your child, your precious child, worthy of love and worthy of your family
