O that I ask to love You more
My heart longs to feel Your gentle touch
My ear yearns to hear Your finest whisper
When I do, my spirit soars
Your words are like honey, even sweeter
Your presence is like wine, even finer
I hunger and thirst for that every day
Pleading You to stay
O that I ask to know You more
To beat with the same heartbeat
To see with the same vision
But when I do, my fear roars
It made my life difficult, even worse
I hated the pain so much that I curse
I plead for You to take it away
I would rather live come what may
But if I walk away from You, who else do I have?
If I ignore Your commands, what hope do I have?
O that I ask that You will have mercy
Teach me to love and to know You
Give me strength to live life through
Fix my eyes on the cross of calvary
And I will always remember that You've died for me
