Like Incense / Sometimes By Step
by Brooke Ligertwood

Album: EIGHT

Verse 1
May my prayer like incense rise before you
The lifting of my hands, a sacrifice
Oh lord jesus turn your eyes upon me
For i know there is mercy in your sight

Verse 2
Your statutes are my heritage forever
My heart is set on keeping your decrees
Please still my anxious urge toward rebellion
Let love keep my will upon its knees

Chorus
Oh god, you are my god
And i will ever praise you

Verse 3
To all creation i can see a limit
But your commands are boundless and have none
So your word is my joy and meditation
From the rising to the setting of the sun

Verse 4
All your ways are loving and are faithful
Your road is narrow but your burden light
Because you gladly lean to lead the humble
I shall gladly kneel to leave my pride

Chorus
Oh god, you are my god
And i will ever praise you

Bridge
I will seek you in the morning
And i will learn to walk in your ways
And step by step you'll lead me
And i will follow you all of my days
