lyrics
Jehovah reigns in beauty
and love that passes through me
and gives me strength,
but what am I?
A heart that yearns to please You
but hides myself from Your view
then asks Your grace,
Lord what am I?
Your grace enwraps us all
and covers our sins and restores to whole.
Your suffering gave us hope
from the depths that we delved, and now raised from the fall.
Lord make me now an instrument
of Your love and mercy
to bring those back that I’ve led astray.
With words that comfort the broken,
and deeds that nurture their souls,
and love that flows from the giver of Life.
Your grace enwraps us all
and covers our sins and restores to whole.
Your suffering gave us hope
from the depths that we delved, and now raised from the fall.
Your company brings us peace.
Your fellowship baptizes me in release,
and freedom from the old.
Lord who am I now? I'm simply your own!

about
Preson Phillips Tampa, Florida
Tampa Florida’s Preson Phillips has been called “a refreshing change from mainstream worship music [who’s] songs recall the
wide-eyed fervor of the early 70s Jesus music artists” ~itunes review.
With an americana influenced sound ranging from folk to alt/country, newcomers should expect a real, almost personal, connection with the emotions and ancient spirituality of the music of Preson Phillips.
