What did I do?

What did I do?

by Marcus Mikhail


What did I do, Lord to deserve Your grace?

To earn Your favour and know that You are preparing a resting place

What did I do, Lord? I’m so undeserving

But thanks to Your Son, You have made me worthy and given me Your word unswerving

 

What did I do, Lord to deserve Your love;

That You would shower me with gifts from above?

I love You, Lord because You loved me first I cannot contain it,

I feel like I will burst!

 

What did I do, Lord to deserve Your salvation?

To be in an everlasting relationship with You because of Your incarnation

As the deer pants for the water, so my soul longs after You

You love me so much dear Lord, nothing can undo

 

What did I do Lord to deserve your heavenly gifts?

Even though I’m prone to wander and my love for You drifts

My cup runs over; it’s truly amazing

To see my life unfold with Your special blessing

 

What did I do, Lord to deserve Your protection?

You are our shield, our defender because of Your affection

You care about us so much indeed this is true

No wonder You asked us to cast our cares upon You

 

Your word is so powerful sharper than any double-edged sword

We understand Your mind through it; it draws us closer to thee, sweet Lord

It has the power to change us, to mould us into the image of Your Son

It lifts us up when we feel like we are overrun

 

In prayer, we praise and thank You and put before You our hearts desire

It brings us closer to You and sets our hearts on fire

We can come to You at any place and at any time

You are always listening to us and Your presence makes us shine

 

You are so faithful, Lord; Your promises have never failed

Even when I was the one who bailed

Time and time again you have proven your faithfulness

You’ve helped me throughout my whole life in failure and success

 

Help me to hold onto You, You are worthy of all glory and praise

Draw us closer to you so we are in tune with you always

I truly don’t deserve You, Lord

I’ve failed You time and again

But with You I have nothing to lose and all to gain
