EVEN NOW
Every moment, every day
Father glorify Thy name
Not just tomorrow, but today
Use me Lord, I pray
I don’t need more, I have enough
You complete my being
You love me now, You’ll love me always
Just as I am, just as I amNo worries, no false hopes
How can I thank you ever
You assured me of eternity
You change each part of meMan has no glory, man has no name
I know nothing, we are defamed
But still, equip us for Your use
Father, glorify Thy nameIt’s not always easy
Many times we suffer pain
But that is life on earth
The way You lived, the way we willWhere you have placed us now
Let Your name be known
You are everything to man
We’re in absolute need of YouTeach me first before I share
Help me see things the way You want
Be the center, be our focus
You’re the reason why we liveLife is not about the future
Not about our will
But You being glorified wholly
Worshipped in sincerity and truthHelp us pray when afflicted
Make us sing when we’re merry
There’s so much good in trusting You
Your blessing, You add no sorrow with itHelp us share our lives
Not only to those we like
To obey You, to please You
To be like You, to be close to YouTo do things great
And to do it for You alone
Even now, even always
Father, glorify Thy name
(John 12:28)
