Lyrics: Joan Beckow
Music: Joan Beckow
May the words of my mouth
And the meditations of my heart
Be acceptable, acceptable, unto Thee, oh Lord
I only pray for you to hear me, hear me
Listen Lord, listen to me
Blessed Lord, may this song
Full of praises that I sing to Thee
Be acceptable, acceptable, unto Thee
Oh, gracious Lord, listen
Guard my tongue from evil, all evil
My lips from speaking guile
Purify my heart from malice
Give me shelter from pride
Teach me how to reflect on the journey
The journey of my soul
Hear my spirit sing how clear to me
This struggle to find You
In all I may do
Blessed Lord, may this song
Full of praises that I sing to Thee
Be acceptable, acceptable, unto Thee
Oh, Lord
May the words of my mouth
And my meditations
