Kent Henry's 'When I Look Into Your Holiness' is a worship song that focuses on the awe and reverence of God's holiness and loveliness. The lyrics describe how everything else fades in comparison to God's presence, and the singer's primary purpose becomes worship. The song emphasizes a personal encounter with God, where the worshiper's will is aligned with His love. It is a classic praise chorus from the Integrity's Hosanna! Music era, often used in congregational settings to lead people into adoration.

When I look into Your holiness
When I gaze into Your loveliness
Your loveliness
When all things that surround become shadows
In the light of You
In the light of You

When I've found the joy of reaching Your heart
When my will becomes enthroned in Your love
When all things that surround become shadows
In the light of You
Light of You

I worship You I worship You
I worship You worship You
The reason I live is to worship You

I worship You
I worship You (You are my God) 
I worship You
The reason I live is to worship You

When I look into Your holiness
When I gaze into Your loveliness
Your loveliness
When all things that surround become shadows
In the light of You
In the light of You
In the light of You

When I've found the joy of reaching Your heart
Reaching Your heart 
When my will becomes enthroned in Your love 
When all things that surround become shadows 
In the light of You 
It's the reason that I live 

I worship You I worship You 
I worship You 
The reason I live is to worship You 

I worship of You with all my heart 
I worship You worship You 
The reason I live is to worship You
