To Love God Is My Wish

I

I lived in a bleak world,

never knowing truth.

I read the Almighty's word

and now I know the meaning of life.

What a great surprise,

Christ brings light to the world.

From His judgment

I've found the path to eternal life.

I treasure God's word,

I treasure God's truth.

How precious truth is!

Bathed in God's fountain of life.

To love God is my wish,

for eternity it's what I will do.

To love God is my wish,

I really want to. Hallelujah!

II

We gather in the church;

the word sustains us.

I know how to live a life

that's worthy and most meaningful.

God gave me truth as life,

so I can please His heart,

walking the right path;

thanks to God for leading me here.

I came from the dust,

I was nothing at all, poor and pitiful.

But God has raised me up.

To love God is my wish,

for eternity it's what I will do.

To love God is my wish,

I really want to. Hallelujah!

III

It's truth that has cleansed me;

God's word is my rebirth.

My heart is grateful;

how lovely is the real God.

The word reveals the truth

and man's evil ways.

Prideful is man,

living just for himself.

God's word has cleansed me.

Now I can live like a human

by understanding the truth;

God is most worthy of love.

Rooted in my heart,

God's word is the way of life.

His word has changed me,

giving me new life.

I want to follow God, be His witness,

love Him truly; this is my wish.

I treasure God's word,

I treasure God's truth.

How precious truth is!

Bathed in God's fountain of life.

To love God is my wish,

for eternity it's what I will do.

To love God is my wish,

I really want to. Hallelujah!
