I bow down before you God br Not because I'm servile br Or seek your favour, br It's not an unquestioning surrender. br I bow down before you God br Not because I sense br That before your omnipotence br I must succumb as a dumb. br I bow down before you God br Not to seek your blessing br Nor to please or appease you, br It's no fear of an unseen power. br I bow down before you God br Not seeking heaven or other abode br But knowing all the world's goodness br I can see in my heart as your face.
