Oh What a Favor to be with My Lord

 Oh, What a Favor to be with My Lord

Oh, what a favor to be with my Lord

With graces and blessings abundant outpoured

A peace in His presence beyond of compare

Harmonious blending of beauty so rare

Transcendence of all that the senses can know

A warming within to make the heart glow

Appearance of bread in a golden array

Magnetic attraction that calls me to stay

He prompts me in ways that are hard to define

But I know when He offers a word that is mine

He strikes at a chord that trembles within

A call to some action, or stripping of sin.

My heart lies wide open in front of the King

But healing and strength to my weakness He'll bring

He shows me with love what my failings have done

But shows me as well what my Savior has won.

A peace that the world can't possibly give

A way to forever in harmony live

Come see what I've found in this small, little place,

An abundance of mercy and power and grace.

You, too, can receive a word from the King

If only a docile spirit you bring

Just wait in His presence for what He will say,

Then make up your mind to promptly obey.

The more you say, Yes, the more you will hear

For when you obey, you are drawing more near

Come give it a try, you'll be glad that you did

All truth is revealed when nothing is hid.
