"WHAT I DO [HALLELUJAH]" (M. McClanahan/R. Varenkamp)
Psalms 102:18
V1
How could I ever write the words on a page that would do You justice?
How could I ever strum a chord or two that capture Your song?
When I’m in Your presence, all that I can do is stand and watch in silence
When I sing, I know all of the seraphim are singing along
Next to them, how can I compare?
Yet my heart’s music to Your ears (Cause)
CHORUS
You love praise, so that’s what I do
Give a little, lift a little up to You
Singing hallelujah, hallelujah
You love praise, so that’s what I do
Give a little, lift a little up to You
Singing hallelujah, hallelujah (to the Lamb of God)
V2
How could I ever bring You something new when You own all creation,
When it's been said that there is nothing new that's under the sun?
As if I could offer something greater than what You've already given
In the end, I know that on my own I'm just a tiny speck of dust
What I offer cannot compare
But I'll still bring it to you
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE
I can’t contain it, God,
Can’t hold Your greatness, God,
Under a bushel, got to proclaim it every chance I’ve got
'Cause You’re amazing, God
So call me crazy, but that’s what I was born to do—
To be a little crazy about You
CHORUS (X2)
TAG
Oh, that's just what I do
Oh, that's just what I do
