Hope, Pt. 3

Lyrics

[Instrumental] "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord "Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." [Instrumental] So do not fear for I am with you Do not be dismayed, for I am your God I will strengthen you and help you I will uphold you with my righteous right hand [Instrumental] Create in me a pure heart, O God And renew a steadfast spirit within me Do not cast me from Your presence Or take Your Holy Spirit from me Restore to me the joy of Your salvation And grant me a willing spirit to sustain me [Instrumental] Open my lips, Lord And my mouth will declare Your praise You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it You do not take pleasure in burnt offerings My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit A broken and contrite heart You, God, will not despise [Instrumental] I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made Your works are wonderful, I know that full well Taste and see that the Lord is good Blessed is the one who takes refuge in Him [Instrumental] He lifted me out of the slimy pit Out of the mud and mire He set my feet on a rock And gave me a firm place to stand He put a new song in my mouth A hymn of praise to our God Many will see and fear of Lord and put their trust in Him [Instrumental]
