I lift up my hands
And wonder, "if only"
I could touch the hem
Of God's robe
But He is holy,
Holy,
Holy;
I am made of the dust,
Encrusted with sin;
If I could place a seal
Upon my biting tongue
For all of the words
That have scorched
People and stung,
In the depths of my heart,
Thoughts would slither still-
A wildness in me
That needs to be crushed,
Crucified, killed
Even Isaiah,
The prophet, trembled
When God's glory
Filled up the temple
Oh, that I would understand
And more abundantly grasp
Hone my ears,
My eyes, unclasp
To see the virgin-born Jesus
Now high and exalted
Who, for my sins, atoned
And turn and find healing
From the Lord Almighty
Who reigns from His
Resplendent throne
