I TURNED AND SAW THE FACE OF GOD
I turned and saw the Face of God
His Glory did surround me
He smiled and gave a wink, a nod
No chaos could confound me
His Grace and Mercy were now mine
His Joy was Mine Abounding
That I might then His Glory shine
And shout His praise resounding
My Life now filled with Joy and hope
Amidst the chaos, pain, and grief
No more I’m left to merely cope
En wrapped by God, my soul’s relief
I’ll sing and dance this song of praise
Mountain peaks or valleys low
Protected by His watchful gaze
Fanning flames of life aglow
Oh, what a Gracious Wondrous thought
When His soft voice spoke my name
In sin’s dark lair, my heart distraught
So laden with my guilt and shame
I turned and saw the Face of God
His Glory did surround me
He smiled and gave a wink, a nod
No chaos could confound me
His Grace and Mercy were now mine
His Joy was Mine Abounding
That I might then His Glory shine
And shout His praise resounding
