Above All Else

Tonight as I was trying to learn a few songs for a womens retreat I have the joy of helping lead worship at this coming weekend... I was struck by the words of this song. It is a song that I want to reflect my life and how I live each day. I want to remember each day that nothing this world could ever offer can come close to the greatest treasure that is our sweet Jesus. My prayer is that "my goals will bow down" and surrender to the will of the Lord continually. I want to say "above all else give me yourself" Lord! More than anything! Help me to see what your perfect will for my life is. Thank you for showering your goodness on me and giving your gifts so freely. May I live my life as a testimony to your goodness and walk in accordance to your will. You do hear my hearts cry Lord. Thank you for giving me Yourself.

Above All Else by Vicky Beeching

Jesus, my passion in life is to know You
May all other goals bow down to
This journey of loving You more
Jesus, You’ve showered Your goodness on me
Given Your gifts so freely
But there’s one thing I’m longing for
Hear my heart’s cry
And my prayer for this life

Above all else
Above all else
Above all else
Give me Yourself

Savior, the more that I see Your beauty
The more that I glimpse Your glory
My heart is captured by You
Jesus, You are my greatest treasure
Nothing this world can offer
Could ever compare to You
So, hear my heart’s cry
And my prayer for this life
