A Million Years
If I could have a million years
Of lifetime here on earth,
It still would be too little time
To praise God for new birth;
And if I owned this whole wide world,
What value would it be
Compared to what my Lord has done
To set this sinner free?
How could I pay the debt I owe
The Son of God who came?
He touched my life one glorious day
And I've never been the same.
A new abundant life He gave
To my darkened weary soul;
Somehow He changed my life within
And made my spirit whole.
If I could serve Him day and night
And never close my eyes,
I'd feel I'd just begun to give
To Him who sacrificed;
And if I had A Million Years
Of lifetime here on earth,
It would be far too little time
To praise Him for new birth.
"I will praise
thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart:
and I will glorify thy name forevermore."
(Ps.86:12)
