if i could write melodies
to tell you how much i love you
it would be endless
it would be priceless
if i could buy you rubies
or if i could buy you gold
what would it profit
if your story went untold
but ive much rather give you praise
and your banner forever ill raise
as long as i live
ill praise your holy name
if i could take the wings
of an earlymornin' bird
and sail to a place
that no ones ever heard
youll still be there
id be in your care
if i could hold the world
in the palms of my hand
without the savior
see i know i could not stand
so ive much rather lift hands to you
and your will forever ill do
as long asi live
ill praise your holy name.
