HISTORY. The year 2000 was dubbed for me a year of "Joy in Worship, Praise & Thanksgiving." It was during this year that I went to my bedside seven-times each day to praise on my knees. I remember letting up on the exact number of seven for a few days and I was promptly convicted by the Holy Spirit. Seven was seven and for this year, it was my number!

I praised through the Psalms in many versions that year and one morning, as I was jogging, this song just bubbled right up from the depths.

Lord, it's Your face I long to see.
Your eyes smiling down at me
And I can boldly come, because of Your Dear Son
Lord, it's Your face I long to see.

Lord, I wake to sing Your praise
I'll sing it all throughout my days
And when my voice is gone, my spirit will sing on
For I wake to sing Your praise.

And I live to do Your will
Please in my life, Your will fulfill
'Cause every time I fall, You hear me when I call
So I can live to do Your will.

But it's Your face I long to see
Your eyes smiling down at me
And I can boldly come, because of Your Dear Son,
Lord, it's Your face I long to see.
Make Your face, Lord, shine on me.
