I wish I could crash like the waves
Or turn like the autumn leaves
In effort to praise You
I wish I could smell like the forest
The fragrance lifting a mighty chorus
In effort to praise You
In effort to praise You
Chorus:
But I'm such a limited creature
And my word can only paint so many pictures
But somewhere I think I read that I am
Treasured over all creation
So I know that I must try
I wish I could roll like the thunder
To leave the earth below in wonder
In effort to praise You
I wish I could fall like the summer rain
And every drop would sing Your name
In effort to praise You
In effort to praise You
Repeat chorus
Gloria, glory in the highest
Forever I will hide myself in Thee (2x)
Every breath that I breathe
Every moment in my history
Is an effort to praise You
An effort to praise You
Glory in the highest
Forever I will hide myself in Thee
Oh, Gloria
Glory in excelsis deo
Gloria, gloria, gloria
Gloria, gloria, gloria
