Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus!

My God, My Savior
Who am I?
Who am I to come before You?
The Holy of Holies manifest
Christ, the Son of God
I reach out and grab hold
Knowing that You're right there

How can I deny You?
How can I resist You?
More than God, more than man
You are the love sustained

My Lord, My Love
Why would You?
Why would You choose to love me?
King of Kings, Prince of Peace
Adonai the Sovereign
I fall back
Resting in Your arms of serenity

How can I deny You?
How can I resist You?
Capture my heart, rapture in my soul
You are love neverending

You're more beautiful
So beautiful, so holy
You're more beautiful
So beautiful, so holy
Beautiful, beautiful,
Beautiful, Lover

How can I deny You?
How can I resist You?
Swept me off my feet, placed me on higher ground
Your love never fails to satisfy

You are so beautiful

Lord, I thank You and praise You for all that You have done in my life. You've taken me from a very bitter young boy to someone respectable. Someone who can understand love, who can understand but a fraction of the unending mercy and grace You've poured over me. I can't escape the rapturous joy that You give me, and I wouldn't want to escape it when it's so welcoming.

Te laudabo,
 De Facto

  1. Did you write all that? It's incredible... May I post it on my blog with a link to you? (And I'll understand if you say no, but it is such a beautiful prayer. Wow.)
