overwhelm me

Take not Thy presence from me
for I desire to know You more
For you are worthy of all,
You’re worthy of all I am and more

I need to set my mind on things above,
on the holiness and glory of my God
In the heavens and in my heart
Who created a mountain
And Who set a spark that grew into a flame
that burns deeply for You

Overwhelm me
Take me from this place and
put me in the place where You are
Overwhelm me
Shake the ground I stand on
I want to be dependent on You…on only You.
