LIKE INCENSE

Intro  
G  Em  C   Am  D

Verse 1
G
May my prayer like incense rise before You
    Em
The lifting of my hands as sacrifice
C
Oh Lord Jesus turn Your eyes upon me
    Am                            D
For I know there is mercy in Your sight

     G
Your statutes are my heritage forever
   Em          
My heart is set on keeping Your decrees
       C          
Please still my anxious urge toward rebellion
Am                             D
Let Love keep my will upon its knees

Chorus
   G               D
Oh God, You are my God
    C                  Am
And I will ever praise You
   G               D
Oh God, You are my God
    C                  Am
And I will ever praise You

Verse 2
   G    
To all creation I can see a limit
    Em
But Your commands are boundless and have none
   C
So Your Word is my joy and meditation
         Am                           D
From the rising to the setting of the sun
G
All Your ways are loving and are faithful
    Em
The road is narrow but Your burden light
  C  
Because You gladly lean to lead the humble
Am                               D                              
I shall gladly kneel to leave my pride

Bridge
       Em              D
I will seek You in the morning
       C                     Am
I will learn to walk in Your ways
    G                   D
And step by step You'll lead me
           C                    Am
And I will follow You all of my days
