To purchase this music: https://www.ocp.org/en-us/songs/11842... Refrain Here I Am, Lord, here I am. I come to do your will. Verse 1 Long was I waiting for God, and then he heard my cry. It was he who taught this song to me, a song of praise to God Verse 2 You asked me not for sacrifice, for slaughtered goats or lambs. No, my heart, you gave me ears to hear you, then I said "Here I Am" Verse 3 You wrote it in the scrolls of law, what you would have me do. Doing that is what has made me happy, your law is in my heart Verse 4 (not sung in this recording) I spoke before your holy people, the good news that you save. Now you know that I will not be silent, I'll always sing your praise. Text: Based on Psalm 40: 8, 14, 2, 4, 7-10. Refrains text copyright 1969, 1981, ICEL. All rights reserved. Used with permission.
