Dearest Lord, teach me to be generous
Teach me to serve You as I should
To give and not to count the cost
To fight and not to heed the wounds
To toil and not to seek for rest
To labor and ask not for reward
Save that of knowing that I do Your most holy will
Refrain
Lord, help us to live
in the present moment
Help us to pray
in the light of this day
Lord, help us to love
in the present moment
for we know not the time
So we give our lives,
placing our trust in you
in the present moment
in the present moment
Verse 1
May I not dwell
on the failures of the past,
drowning in sin
that you have set free
May I just be with you
and be who I’m meant to be
->Refrain
Verse 2
May I not dream
of the glories of the future
Things that may
never come to be
May I just be with you
and be who I’m meant to be
Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise
The city of our God, the holy place
The joy of the whole earth
Great is the Lord in whom we have the victory
He aids us against the enemy
We bow down on our knees
And Lord, we want to lift Your name on high
And Lord, we want to thank You for the works
You’ve done in our lives
And Lord, we trust in Your unfailing love
For You alone are God eternal
Throughout earth and Heaven above
