The Beginning Of You

Charles Billingsley


If I counted the ways 
You've been faithful to me 
And I tried to write it all down 
On page after page 
The story would be 
Of the unchanging love I have found 
Though you live in my heart 
Still I hunger, oh Lord 
To know you even more

So I come just to draw from your well 
Pour out your love on me 
And I stand in the warmth of your presence 
And savor the mystery 
You have mercies I've never imagined 
Yet every morning they're new 
Cause the end of all I could hope for 
Is just the beginning of you

Every time I've been weak 
Or I've tested your grace 
And I've needed forgiveness again
You've given me strength 
And I'm still so amazed 
How patient and tender you've been 
Are there depths to your heart 
Where I've still yet to go 
If there's more, then I want to know

(Repeat Chorus)
