More Than Ever(Now More Than Ever) - Russ Taff

More Than Ever - Russ Taff
When I started my journey
In fresh childlike trust
I believed that
The Lord's way was best
I would read in his Word
How he mothered the bird
And grieved when
It fell from it's nest
How I felt his delight
When I chose to do right
And I prayed I would not
Make him sad
We would meet on the way
In the cool of the day
What a pure sweet communion we had
Oh but now more than
Ever I cherish the cross
More than ever I sit at his feet
The road I have traveled
Has sometimes been steep
Through wild jagged places of life
Sometimes I've stumbled
And fallen so hard
That the stones cut my soul
Like a knife
But the staff of my Shepherd
Would reach out for me
And lift me to cool pastures green
With oil of the spirit anointing my wounds
There I'd rest by the clear healing stream
Oh but now more than
Ever I cherish the cross
More than ever I sit at his feet
All the miles of my journey
Have proved my Lord true
And he is so precious to me
Is love's old sweet story
Too good to be true
Do you find this all hard to believe
Have this cruel world we live in
So battered your heart
That the hurt child
Inside you can't grieve
I can't say I blame you
I've been where you are
And all I can say is
It's true
You're wanted
You're precious
You're the love of his heart
And the old rugged cross was for you
Now more than
Ever I cherish the cross
More than ever I sit at his feet
All the miles of my journey
All the miles of my journey
Have proved my Lord true
And he is so precious to me
Oh but now more than
Ever I cherish the cross
More than ever I sit at his feet
All the miles of my journey
Have proved my Lord true
And he is so precious to me
He is so precious to me
And he is so precious to me
