Day Is Dimming

The day is dimming and I'm yearning for You

I won't be satisfied till I see Your face

Every victory, every loss

Every tick and every cross

You can put them all in place

Seems I'm finding more of why in these moments

I feel like I'm made to sing of how good You are

The more the years swell by and pass

Each second more than last

It's true by far

That no profound thought or clever rhyme

No soaring, grand melodic line

No theory, philosophy or sign

Can explain it

Can explain

Where You are, I wanna be

It's Your love that has changed me

I'd give the world and all it's charms

For a moment in Your arms

Better is one day with You

Than a thousand elsewhere

A thousand elsewhere

I still remember what it felt like before You

I'm grateful everyday for how things have changed

I'll thank You every way I can

'Cos my life only began

When I heard You call my name

Now, no praise of man, no great acclaim

No humble looking kind of fame

No power, wealth or worldly gain

Could satisfy me

Could ever satisfy

'Cos where You are, I wanna be

It's Your grace that has raised me

I give my whole life to honour You

In whom I live

In whom I move

Better is one day with You

Than a thousand elsewhere

- Day is Dimming by Brooke Fraser

In this life,

I want no one more,

Than the Lord my God,

The lover of my soul.

And with this life,

I want nothing more,

Than to put a smile on His face.
