Not gold or silver or precious diamonds Could ever take the place of You My heart was restless till I discovered Your love that stays so true I was lost in darkness But You have rescued me Now every day I'll praise You As my God In my time of trouble I called upon Your name And You delivered me From all my fears For I have been no stranger To the kindness of the Lord On that day that I encountered You This hope I've found was born Like a brilliant ray of sunshine feels After weeks of winter gloom I closed the door in November And stepped out in the month of June And a thousand tongues will never be enough To praise You as my God Jesus Jesus How I long for that day When I'll see You face to face
