Here I am to worship - Tamil transliteration (part a)








Original Here I am to worship lyrics (Michael W Smith, AZ Lyrics):

Light of the World
You stepped down into darkness
Open my eyes
Let me see
Beauty that made
This heart adore You
Hope of a life
Spent with You

[Chorus:]
Here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You're my God
You're altogether lovely
Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me

King of all days
Oh, so highly exalted
Glorious in Heaven above
Humbly You came
To the earth You created
All for love's sake became poor

[Chorus]

I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross
I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross

[Chorus X2]

Choices

Jesus man of sorrows
Has taught me to ask

Amidst the turmoil
I wonder what God
Has created for me
To enjoy
To choose delight
Over misery
Despite circumstance

Happiness is happenstance
But Joy is a choice
Life may be hard
But Peace is a choice
Betrayal is inevitable
But Love is a choice

To be deceived is unavoidable
To choose to seek the Truth
Is Freedom


I leave my burden
At His feet

As Jesus- Lord of ALL
Has taught me to sing


Seeking

Are there no amount of tears
That would satisfy your hunger
Oh Lord?
Are you content
In letting me drown in them
Oh Lord?
As I cry out in vain
I wonder
Oh Jesus
Have you left me
To wither
Without your grace?
Have you left me wandering
Alone in this place?
Have you left me?
Oh Father in heaven
Have you left me?
Have you given the enemy
Permission to test me?
Test me Oh God test me
I will cry out to you Jesus always
As I have nothing else
Left
I left it all for you
As I want to be your servant
But how can a servant
Obey the orders
She cannot hear?
How can I know you God
If I have no affirmation
That I hear from you?
Lord make me your servant
Send me your voice
Send me your orders
But do not leave me
Oh God
To suffer in this silence
To be suffocated by your absence
Forgive me God for my wrongs
Allow me your presence oh Lord
Allow me to eat the scraps
From your heavenly banquet
Oh God I beg you for your mercy
Upon my soul that withers away
At not hearing you
At not feeling you
At not knowing you
Oh God please minister to my soul
That cleaves to the dust
As it is in YOU alone
I put my trust.
