Poor In Paradise Songtext
von Margaret Becker
Poor In Paradise Songtext
As the day is closing, dimming slowly
I′m recounting all your faithfulness
And I know that all these gifts around
Me are sent from you on heaven's breath
And my eyes are filled to overflowing
As I′m watching all your love unfold
'Cause I can't contain the precious bounty
You′ve poured out on this tattered soul
For no greater treasure could there be under any lock and key Than to be a beggar fully freed, pouring paradise with thee
Pouring paradise with thee
As the years come to me ever swiftly
I pray I′ll please you in their midst
And when I'm too weak to show your glory
Come gather me in your tenderness
For no greater treasure could there be under any lock and key
Than to be a beggar fully freed, pouring paradise with thee
Pouring paradise with thee
I′m recounting all your faithfulness
And I know that all these gifts around
Me are sent from you on heaven's breath
And my eyes are filled to overflowing
As I′m watching all your love unfold
'Cause I can't contain the precious bounty
You′ve poured out on this tattered soul
For no greater treasure could there be under any lock and key Than to be a beggar fully freed, pouring paradise with thee
Pouring paradise with thee
As the years come to me ever swiftly
I pray I′ll please you in their midst
And when I'm too weak to show your glory
Come gather me in your tenderness
For no greater treasure could there be under any lock and key
Than to be a beggar fully freed, pouring paradise with thee
Pouring paradise with thee
