Presence

Like Gabriel before the throne I would to see your glory But sinful pride infects this heart My self made purgatory I cry to you oh Adonai, to harken to my plea To break the bonds of sinful passion, your holiness to see How oft I hear of people say they heard you talk to them But silence echoes in my soul and thus I self condemn [Chorus] oh Abba Father Bend your ear and hear my cry….this hearts sigh Holy Spirit… answer me, Where’s my path, your vision? I sacrifice this stoney heart, to your circumcision Cut away the world and sin Oh to be holy, without….within What would I do to see, Shekinah glory The manifested presence, heavenly territory Where celestial beings bow the knee And God-head…..three in one agree [Chorus] oh Abba Father Bend your ear and hear my cry…my hearts sigh I know my lips are scarlet red My wayward heart so oft mislead Touch me Jesus…and heal the wound So my soul, my heart, my ears attune To hear you speak and see your face And know your holiness and grace There’s nothing more…your presence pleasure I’d give up every worldly treasure [Chorus] oh Abba Father Bend your ear and hear my cry….this hearts sigh Yahweh come and touch my eyes With waters of life, please Lord baptize To cleanse me of idolatry Lord Jesus…I wish to be set free Manifest your self….. I pray This moment, this hour…this very day To see your glory and hear your voice In this alone I would rejoice [Chorus] oh Abba Father Bend your ear, and hear my cry….my deepest wish ….this child’s cry
