You hold the world in motion
You say the word and heaven opens
You flung the stars into space
God of wonders
You know my name
When the day is gone
And the house is still
My hungry soul cries out to find you
And you're waiting for me
Waiting for me
So many things I long to say
But in your presence
I am speechless
For I am loved by you
In a crowded world your faithfulness
Reaches to hold me ever thankful
That I am loved by you
There's an anthem beckoning in me to sing
I'll play it for you, play it for You
There's a song of hope
That I need to bring
I'll sing it for you, sing it for you
Every time I call your name I know
You're waiting for me, waiting for me
Every day and night I come and bow
Before your throne
You oceans rise to praise you
You paint the skies with the colours of grace
You hold in my life in your hands
God of wonders
You know my name
