As Long As You Are Glorified

Shall I take from Your hand Your blessings
Yet not welcome any pain.
Shall I thank You for days of sunshine
Yet grumble in days of rain.
Shall I love You in times of plenty
Then leave you in days of drought.
Shall I trust when I reap a harvest
But when winter winds blow, then doubt.

Oh let Your will be done in me
In Your love I will abide.
Oh I long for nothing else as long
As You are glorified.

Are You good only when I prosper
And true only when I'm filled?
Are You King only when I'm carefree
And God only when I'm well?
You are good when I'm poor and needy.
You are true when I'm parched and dry.
You still reign in the deepest valley.
You're still God in the darkest night.

Oh let Your will be done in me
In Your love I will abide.
Oh I long for nothing else as long
As You are glorified.

So quiet my restless heart.
Quiet my restless heart.
Quiet my restless heart in You.

Oh let Your will be done in me
In Your love I will abide.
Oh I long for nothing else as long
As You are glorified.

Words by Mark Altrogge

The words to the song are on my mind a lot. I pray that this is how my life is known. No matter what happens, good or bad, I want God to be glorified in my life. Just like Paul talked about in Philippians. Wow! God, do a work in me!!!
