My Sole Desire

My Sole Desire

Intro:
Don't let me drift into the world, where Your joy and peace are stolen.
Don't let me fall into their traps, for they show no mercy.

Verse 1:
My heart may one day fail, but Your love endures forever.
Friends and family may betray me, but You and I will stand together.
I have laid my heart before You, Lord; do as You please,
Because You laid down Your life for me, knowing I'd drown in sin.

Pre-Chorus:
Holy Father, I need Your love.
Upon the cross, a sacrifice was made to make me whole.
Sweet Jesus, I need Your love.
You walked to the cross, where a sacrifice was made to make me whole.

Chorus:
Higher, higher, we lift You, Lord.
There is none as worthy as You, Lord.
My sole desire is to be like You, Lord.
I come to worship at Your feet, O dear Lord.

Verse 2:
Don't let me drift into the world, where Your joy and peace are stolen.
Don't let me fall into their traps, for they show no mercy.
Anything but a life surrounded by these vipers, dear Lord.
Yet if this cup will glorify Your name, let me drink from it, O Lord.
*Pre-Chorus + Chorus*
