More

More than oxygen, I need Your love

More than life-giving food the hungry dream of

More than an eloquent word depends on the tongue

More than a passionate song needs to be sung

More than a word could ever say

More than a song could ever convey

I need You more than all of these things

Father, I need You more

More than magnet and steel are drawn to unite

More than poets love words to rhyme as they write

More than the comforting warmth of sun in the spring

More than the eagle loves wind under its wings

More than a word could ever say

More than a song could ever convey

I love You more than all of these things

Father, I love You more

More than a blazing fire on a winter’s night

More than the tall evergreens reach for the light

More than the pounding waves long for the shore

More than these gifts You give, I love You more
