I Long To Worship You

I have not come
To ask you for anything
Except for the privilege
To glorify your name

Let my singing
And my praise to you
Fill you up Oh God
That you might be satisfied

I long to worship you
I long to worship you
To stand in your courts and tell
How marvellous you are
To you I raise my hands
I want to lift you up
Here in your presence Lord
I long to worship you

Indeed it is such a privilege to worship God.It hurts when I see and hear of people who worship God only they need God.It shouldn't be this way.Worship is not about receiving,it is about giving.It's about declaring of God's greatness,about singing of His faithfulness,about embracing His majesty,about proclaiming the freedom He has gracefully given.Worship shouldn't be a 'I need God now so I shall worship and hope I touch His heart and then He'll intervene' kind of thing,but when we worship,friends let's do it sincerely.
Worship is not about a song,it's not about the time before the sermon,it's not just an act,but worship is a lifestyle,a gift.Your life is God's gift to you,let your life then be of worship,let it be your gift to God.Friends,let's not worship just because we feel like it,rather let's do it because we want to give God our best,becuase we recognise that it is by God's grace that we are where we are,and let's worship with full sincerity,with truth,nothing fake hidden within.

John4:23-24 'Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth'
