May the Words of My Mouth
Living a Life of Love: Embracing Faith and Devotion in Tim Hughes' Song
Lyrics
May the words of my mouth
May the speaker's spoken words reflect positive and uplifting sentiments.
And the thoughts of my heart
May the thoughts and intentions in the speaker's heart be pure and honorable.
Bless Your name, bless Your name, Jesus
Expressing a desire for the speaker's words and thoughts to bring honor and praise to Jesus.
And the deeds of the day
May the actions or deeds undertaken throughout the day be in alignment with values and beliefs.
And the truth in my ways
Seeking to ensure that honesty and integrity characterize the speaker's ways.
Speak of You, speak of You, Jesus
Reiterating the desire for words and deeds to center around Jesus.
For this is what I'm glad to do
Expressing joy and willingness to engage in actions that please Jesus.
It's time to live a life of love that pleases You
A commitment to living a life characterized by love and pleasing Jesus.
And I will give my all to You
Committing to giving everything to Jesus as an act of devotion.
Surrender everything I have and follow You
Pledging to surrender all possessions and follow Jesus.
I'll follow You
Reaffirming the speaker's commitment to follow Jesus.
Lord, will You be my vision,
Asking the Lord to be the speaker's vision, implying guidance and clarity in life.
Lord, will You be my guide
Requesting the Lord to serve as a guide in the speaker's journey.
Be my hope, be my light and the way
Asking the Lord to be a source of hope, light, and direction in life.
And I'll look not for riches,
Expressing a commitment not to seek material wealth or earthly praises.
Nor praises on earth
Acknowledging that only the Lord will hold the primary place in the speaker's heart.
Only You'll be the first of my heart
(No specific content in this line)
I will follow, I will follow, I will follow You
Reaffirming the determination to follow Jesus, expressed three times for emphasis.
