“I Will Praise Him”
(words and music by Monica Dennington 2005)
Since the day You called me,
I’ve been running like a girl that’s overcome-
And I know You saw me
whip my head around when I heard You say-
“Come away with me and I am
gonna show you
a thing or two
About Love”-
And I know You’re with me,
’cause I see Your hand around me all the time-
And I know you hear me,
cause You whisper words that let me know You’re mine-
And now I’ll never be
Alone without You and
I just want You
To know-
That I’m so in love.
{chorus}
So I will praise You in the morning, I will praise You in the day
I will praise You in the evening, I will praise
And I will praise You in the morning, I will praise You in the day
I will praise You in the evening, I will praise
And I’ll be
Stealing away,
Stealing away-
…Hide me in Your
secret place
Feel Your feathers soft
upon my face…
Stealing away,
Stealing away-
Hide me in Your
secret chamber, I
Feel Your breath, I
feel Your finger
Wipe a tear from off my face
Put a smile back on my face-
-only You and I alone here in this place
and, I will praise…
You.
It’s the way You cause my
Little heart to beat a million miles per-
And I nearly lost my mind
When I heard You say,
“Father, I want her”-
And now I’ll never be
Alone without you, and
I just want you
To know-
That I am so in love
{chorus}
So I will praise You in the morning, I will praise You in the day
I will praise You in the evening, I will praise
And I will praise You in the morning, I will praise You in the day
I will praise You in the evening, I will praise
And now I’m
Sailing away,
Sailing away, ah,
Looking in under the veil and I never thought that
I would see
the Glory of Your face…
And now I’m
Sailing away,
Sailing away, ah,-
Who would have thought it would be
A sacrifice of praise
that brings me to this place,
and,
I will praise…
When I wake up in the morning, I
am gonna glorify Your name.
When I get into the shower, I
am gonna glorify your name.
When I do the ordinary things-
I am gonna glorify Your name,
If I dine with emperors and kings-
I am gonna glorify Your name…
I will praise Your Name…
Glorify Your Name…
I will praise You,
I will praise You, I will
Glorify
Your Name-…
I’m gonna glorify
Your Name.
{chorus}
And I will praise You in the morning, I will praise You in the day
I will praise You in the evening, I will praise
And I will praise You in the morning, I will praise You in the day
I will praise You in the evening, I will praise
And I’ll be
Stealing away,
Stealing away-
…Hide me in Your
secret place
Feel Your feathers soft
upon my face…
Stealing away,
Stealing away-
Hide me in Your secret chamber, I
Feel Your breath, I feel Your finger
Wipe a tear from off my face
Put a smile back on my face-
-only You and I alone here in this place
and, I will praise…
You.
