My reason for living

Psalm 39

  • Refrain:
    My reason for living
    is to do your will:
    Here I am!
  1. I waited for the Lord;
    he heard my cry:
    Put a new song into my heart.
    I waited for the Lord;
    he heard my cry:
    Put a new song into my heart.

    Sing praise to God!
    Sing praise to God!
  2. You do not ask for wealth,
    you ask for peace:
    Put a new song into my mouth...
    Sing praise to God!...
  3. Your justice I will tell
    throughout the world:
    Put a new song on to my lips...
    Sing praise to God!...
