Текст песни Hope, Pt. 3 - Michael W. Smith

For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord.
Plans to prosper you and not to harm
You. Plans to give you hope and a future.
So do not fear for I am with you. Do not be dismayed for I am your God
I will strengthen you and help you
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand
Create in me a clean heart Oh God
And renew a steadfast spirit within me
Do not cast me from Your presence
Or take Your Holy Spirit from me
Restore to me the joy of Your salvation
And grant me a willing spirit to sustain me
Open my lips Lord and my mouth will declare Your praise
You do not delight in sacrifice; or I will bring it
You do not take pleasure in burnt offerings
My sacrifice Oh God is a broken spirit
A broken and contrite heart You God will not despise
I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully
Made; your works are wonderful,I know that full well
Taste and see that the Lord is good
Blessed is the one who takes refuge in Him
He lifted me out of the slimy pit
Out of the mud and mire,
He set my feet upon a rock and gave me a firm place to stand
He put a new song in my mouth
A hymn of praise to our God
Many will see and fear the Lord and put their trust in Him
