I wish I could crash like the waves and turn like the autumnbreeze
In effort to praise You
I wish I could smell like the forest, the fragrance lifting amighty chorus
In effort to praise You
In effort to praise You
But I'm such a limited creature
And my words can only paint so many pictures
But somewhere I think I read that I am treasured over allcreation
So I know that I must try

I wish I could roll like the thunder, to leave the earth below inwonder
In effort to praise You
I wish I could fall like the summer rain and every drop wouldsing Your name
In effort to praise You
In effort to praise You
But I'm such a limited creature
And my words can only paint so many pictures
But somewhere I'm sure I read that I am treasured over allcreation
So I know that I must try

Gloria, glory in the highest
Forever I will hide myself in Thee
Oh, gloria
Glory in the highest
Forever I will hide myself in Thee

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
