I Come Before You

[from ihop interns]

C G
I come before You
F C
Simply to adore You
C G
And I lay down my heart
F C
And choose the good part

C
To know I am Yours
G
To sit at Your feet
F
To give You my heart
G
And all of me

C
To see You face to face
G
And stand as Your friend
F
To know Your embrace
G
A love without end
C G F G
I come before You


I come before You
Knowing that I love You
And I lay down my plans
And come just as I am

Where does this song come from? Do you know if there is a recording of it somewhere?

Written by Alexander Matthew Weber. Its on a CD that was made when Kirk Bennett was leading the Tabernacle Of David internship(now the OneThing Internship)at the IHOP-KC (www.ihop.org).
You can find Alexander Matthew Weber on Facebook.

Actually, this is missing the last part of the CD lyrics:

I stand before You in a world of distractions and constant complications I come before you in simple adoration.

yes, I love this song. I'm Catholic and I'm playing it tonight at a worship session with about 40 young people. Great reflection on Mary of Bethany's choosing the better part.

How cool. I converted to Catholicism years after writing the song.
