While We Still Breathe

Verse 1

As a father has compassion on his children
So the Lord has compassion on those who fear him
For he knows how we are formed
He remembers we are dust
As for man his days are like the grass

Verse 1 (continued)

Like the flower of the field he flourishes
The wind blows and removes it from its place
But from everlasting to everlasting
The Lord's love is with those who fear him

Chorus

Come let us praise
Come let us raise our hands to the king
Come and adore
Jesus our Lord yet while we still breathe

Chorus (continued)

Let us proclaim his wonderful name
Let our voices rise
Let us magnify our Lord Jesus Christ

Verse 2

What is man that you are mindful of him
For what is our life but a mist
That appears for a while and then vanishes
We are dust and to dust we shall return

Verse 2 (continued)

Yet how great is the love the Lord has lavished on us
That we should be called children of God
For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness
And brought us into the kingdom of his Son

Chorus

Come let us praise
Come let us raise our hands to the king
Come and adore
Jesus our Lord yet while we still breathe

Chorus (continued)

Let us proclaim his wonderful name
Let our voices rise
Let us magnify our Lord Jesus Christ

Chorus (repeated)

Come let us praise
Come let us raise our hands to the king
Come and adore
Jesus our Lord yet while we still breathe

Chorus (continued)

Let us proclaim his wonderful name
Let our voices rise
Let us magnify our Lord Jesus Christ
