Who was there in the morning
To witness the sun shed its first light
Who was there in the heavens
When the birds sang their first lullaby
Who was there to draw the first constellations
To a backdrop of a moonlit sky
Who was there to applaud the eagle
Take off for her first flight
Yahweh
Who was there when I wasn't aware
Of priceless blessings that i had
Who was there when I shed my tears
'Cause my grandmother had passed
Who was there when I found out
My friends were betraying me
Who was there when I heard about
The church falsely accusing me
Yahweh
Flowers and melodies
Beckoning to wait for the wind
It's a Sovereign God who insists
On calling me friend
I live for the moments
When I get to know Him more
I wait for His presence
His Fragrance is my Reward
Who was there when I turned my back to my own moral beliefs
Just a little temptation and now I'm all ensnared in hypocrisy
Even still when I grip religion and the yeast of the Pharisees
Who was there with tears in His eyes, washing my feet
Yahweh
Strangled and drowning in all my bitterness
You sent that Jonah Fish so I could catch my breath
I live for the moments when I get to know Him more
I wait for His presence, His Fragrance is my Reward
I live to know You
I live to know You
I live to know You more
