Tender Eyes of Mercy and Oceans of Love
You awaken me at night and I see your eyes of mercy, tenderness from above
May I not live to myself, but let me drown in the kindness of Your love
Countless are your thoughts of supplying all I need,
But I need, I need, and I need more of You indeed
Your presence is sweet pleasure and I long to stay
Each moment to speak to You and adore each minute of the day
I no longer see each part of creation as smallness and mortal dust
I see a mighty genius at work and a life sustaining thrust
In desperate meanness and pride Your enemies will fail
The mighty iron sword of your words will assail
Father, please protect me from the enemy each and every day
To know of your love to me and mine to yours, to always stay
Cause me to remember the day I will breathe the last and final breath
Never forgetting I am Your servant until the valley of the shadow of death
Hosana to the son of David, Israel’s Lord and King
Holy, Holy, Holy, is the Lord, we and angels sing
