From the recording Holy
This is a layered track. My D28 on one side and a Washburn (yes Libby, that's your guitar) tuned to open D on the other. Then intermittent three part harmony and harmonica. One verse with morning thoughts, one verse with end of day thoughts, and one verse with I am getting old thoughts.
Lyrics
TODAY
D
Early in the morning as I seek your face
Reflecting on your mercy and your amazing grace
C G/B D
Today I know there’s nothing I will do
C G/B D
Worthy of the love that comes from you
D
Later in the evening, as I end my day
Reflecting on the goodness that you sent my way
C G/B D
Today I know there’s nothing I have done
C G/B D
Worthy of the glory from the Son
C G/B
All my day you sheltered me
D
And kept me safe from harm
C G/B D
Brought me back when I had gone astray
C G/B
All my faith and trust I give
D
To you and you alone
C G/B D
You guide my steps with every word you say
C G/B
All my days you comfort me
D
Within your loving arms
C G/B D
Hold me close and keep me near to you
C G/B
All my hopes and dreams are found
D
By walking in your way
C G/B D
Please guide my steps in everything I do
D
Looking at my lifetime as the flower fades
Take comfort in the knowledge you’ve numbered all my days
C G/B D
Knowing when I’ve lived my final one
C G/B D
You will come for me and take me home
C G/B D
Knowing when I’ve lived my final one
C G/B D
You will come for me and take me home
