Lyrics
All I want to do, is do thy will
Singing onto high, just fills my thrills
Lifting up my hands, just makes me feel
One Step above, to holy hill
Heyyyyy! One step above to holy hill!
All I want to do, is do thy will
Singing onto high, just fills my thrills
Lifting up my hands, just makes me feel
One step above to holy hill
Heyyyy! One step above to holy hill!
(Bridge)
Day by day and night by night
Week after week, and strife after strife
But there’s no condemnation on my life
Thanks be to Jesus, my strength and my might
Heyyyy! Thanks be to Jesus, my strength and my might
All I want to do, is lift the up
Glory to your name, I can never get enough
For you carry all the weight, while I walk on the rough
Thanks be to Jesus, I’ll never get enough
Heyyyy! Thanks be to Jesus, I’ll never get enough!
Day by day and night by night
Week after week, and strife after strife
But there’s no condemnation on my life
Thanks be to Jesus, my strength and my might!
Thanks be to Jesus, my strength and my might!
All I want to do, Is do thy will!
Singing onto high, just fills my thrills
Lifting up my hands, just makes me feel
One Step above, to holy hill
Heyyyyy! One step above to holy hill!
All I want to do, is do thy will
Singing onto high, just fills my thrills
Lifting up my hands, just makes me feel
One step above to holy hill
Heyyyy! One step above to holy hill!
(Bridge)
Day by day and night by night
Week after week, and strife after strife
But there’s no condemnation on my life
Thanks be to Jesus, my strength and my might
Heyyyy! Thanks be to Jesus, my strength and my might
All I want to do, is lift the up
Glory to your name, I can never get enough
For you carry all the weight, while I walk on the rough
Thanks be to Jesus, I’ll never get enough
Heyyyy! Thanks be to Jesus, I’ll never get enough!
Day by day and night by night
Week after week, and strife after strife
But there’s no condemnation on my life
Thanks be to Jesus, my strength and my might!
Thanks be to Jesus, my strength and my might!
All I want to do, Is do thy will!

Bio
I’m a songwriter/lyricist. I’ve been writing poetry and creating rhymes and rhythm since my teenage years. Every since the spark of love channeled my heart, the need to express beganed. There’s nothing like allowing words to flow through you and speak it’s own language. It’s down right magical. Alluring and inspirational to say the least. I don’t think there will ever come a time when I’ll lose the passion to create and express. I love the art of music!

Comments:
A nice faith song. I’m not sure about the “fill my thrills” line. What does that mean and why did you choose to say that rather than something else?

Fills my thrills is another way of saying, very excited or overjoyed.
