Lead Vocal: Florence Bjerregaard
Music & Lyrics: Esther David

"LET ME LIVE JUST ONE MORE DAY"

Verse One:
The rocks and hills and streams cry out in honor to His name.
The cattle on a thousands hills assist me to proclaim
The glory of creation, but He has no lips but mine
To reach a soul, to tell him how to know His love divine.

Chorus:
Oh let me live just one more day in service to the King,
My pride I lay before His feet, a broken heart I bring;
Yet happy, unbelieving He could use a one like I,
A slave of love, to share His shame, to suffer and to die.

Verse Two:
Oh God, I lay before You now a life of emptiness,
Despising what I knew to be a life of worldliness.
Transform me by Your power now, that men might see in me
The love You gave, forgiveness that can set my brothers free.

[Repeat Chorus]

Verse Three:
He lay the world before my eyes, a cross lay at my feet,
And as I knelt to lift it high, the blood flowed through the streets,
And piercing cries of emptiness, of rust and cankered gold
Of a twisted, desperate nation doomed to see the wrath of God.

[Repeat Chorus]

Verse Four:
As down a long and narrow road, He leads me day by day.
I'll give Him praise, Who gives me grace to walk the Master's way.
I have no love to give Him but that He gave to me,
A crown of life, prepared Above,
I'll cast before His feet.

[Repeat Chorus Twice]

For love.
