When I Look Upon Your Face

WHEN I LOOK UPON YOUR FACE

© Words by Stephen D. Verner – Wed. 5/25/11 – 9:35am-10:40am

VERSE 1:

There’s a longing deep inside my heart

I couldn’t tell you when it began

Or how to find its start

All I know is that I love You now

And that will never change

I’d go anywhere, do anything

In the power of Your name

CHORUS:

Jesus, name above all names

You’ve changed my life forever

I’ll never be the same

And though I cannot see you now

I look forward to the day

When I look upon Your face and hear You call my name

VERSE 2:

There’s a desire deep inside my soul

To see others come to know You (the way that I do)

Lay down the rights to their lives

And let You take control

All I know is that they need You now

Though through veiled eyes they can’t see

The way, the truth, and the life or they would believe

CHORUS:

Jesus, name above all names

You’ve changed my life forever

I’ll never be the same

And though I cannot see you now

I look forward to the day

When I look upon Your face and hear You call my name

BRIDGE:

Awake O Sleeper, awake now Dreamer

For your day has come

To see the light of Jesus shine

Your victory He has won

Put down your heavy burdens, let go of guilt and shame

Let Freedom sing a brand new song

“He’s broken ALL your chains!”

CHORUS:

Jesus, name above all names

You’ve changed my life forever

I’ll never be the same

And though I cannot see you now

I look forward to the day

When I look upon Your face and hear You call my name
