Your Face

I want to be your face

A reflection of your grace

Tune my heart and soul to beat as yours

Cause me thirst to know and serve you more.

 

May your kindness fill my eyes

And your love light up my smile

That I might serve you in this place,

I want, I want to be your face.

Lord, let me be your feet

Set their path t’ward those in need

Cause them to walk through every open door

Haste to feed your hungry, clothe your poor

And no matter what the cost

May they reach the hurt and lost

That my service be complete

Lord let me, Lord let me be your feet.

Chorus

You told me feed my lambs, take care of my sheep

Give rest to the weary, strengthen the weak

Comfort the broken, the faintest of heart

The orphan, the widow, whoever they are

Lord, let me be your voice

To proclaim Your word and truth

That the world may know You are the way

Ever present, loving every day

Oh, and the gift of life is won

Through the Father’s only Son

That they may know there is a choice

Lord let me, Lord let me be your voice.

Repeat chorus ...

I want to be your face

A reflection of your grace

Give me ears to hear and eyes to see

May my lips proclaim your majesty!

Oh, and no matter what the cost

May I reach the hurt and lost

I am your servant in this place

I want, I want to be your face … your face
