How Could I Not Praise You!



How Could I Not Praise You!

How could I not praise you Lord
Your presence envelops me;
And the beauty of your Holiness
Is reflected in all I see.
 
How could I not praise you Lord
When you give me every breath.
Without you Lord, there is no life
Only hell and death.
 
How could I not praise you Lord
When I'm filled with thee.
You loved me when unlovable
When I was still your enemy.
 
How could I not praise you Lord
When you fill my life with joy;
And took away my hurt and pain,
Gave me reason to rejoice.
 
How could I not praise you Lord,
You've become my everything.
I delight in being a child of God
And giving myself to thee.
 
How could I not praise you Lord
For your promises are sure;
Someday I shall be like you
Holy, righteous, pure.
 
How could I not praise you Lord
Just for being who you are:
The mighty King of Heaven
Full of glory, strength and power.
 
How could I not praise you Lord,
You have made my heart so glad;
I can come to you with every need
What a loving awesome dad!
