My Cup Runs Over

I was overcome on Sunday by the goodness of God. I sat back, listening to the worship band practicing and was overcome with emotions- overcome with thankfulness and humility, awe and praise for our amazing God. I just wanted to listen and worship and revel in God's glory forever.

My cup runs over
My cup runs over
Thanks be to God for
My cup runs over

I don't know why
and I don't know how
God you've brought me to a place
where I see my life abounds

It's not what I deserve
and it's not what I have earned
In spite of myself, my mistakes, the ups and downs
My eyes are open and I've learned

Out of the deep, the very depths of me
I feel filled and full and always being filled
I don't understand why you'll never stop
How you can always give and give without wanting to stop

I look around at my life and can hardly believe it's mine
The blessings, the goodness, the joy and the pain
All real, all from you, all mine

I wouldn't give any of it back
I wouldn't change it if i could
Because I know it's all from you

Thank you for this cup, my life, my soul
Thank you that it's filled and full and always being filled

My cup runs over
My cup runs over
Praise be to God for
My cup runs over
