Early in the morning
When I start the day
You're the first thing my heart wants to see
I carry Your light
As I walk along the way
And I will shine it with all that's in me
Lord I really want to know You
Just as You are
To give You all that You deserve
Lord fill me up
Till Your love surrounds me
Lord give me grace
That goes all around me
And Lord give me faith
That's simple and true
Lord make my life a devotion to You
I need your direction
As I travel down the road
Won't you show me a good path to take
Wherever you lead me
Thats where I'll go
Lord I'll follow you for all of my days
Lord I really want to know You
Just as You are
To give You all that You deserve
Lord build me up
Till Your love surrounds me
Lord give me grace
That goes all around me
And Lord give me faith
That's simple and true
Lord make my life a devotion to You
I really want to know You
I really want to show You
Let it shine through in my life
Lord fill me up
Till Your love surrounds me
Lord give me grace
That goes all around me
And Lord give me faith
That's simple and true
Lord make my life a devotion to You, yeah
Devotion to You
Devotion to You
