A gorgeous, sacred Christian hymn with music by Kevin G. Pace and text by Kathryn W. Hales. This hymn expressed the following sentiment: A lifetime of prayers and songs can never fully express the depth of gratitude and praise owed to the Lord. Though I have spoken the words and sung the melodies countless times, they remain but a small offering compared to His infinite love and sacrifice. Jesus shed His precious blood, each drop a testament to His divine love and suffering for me. In return, I seek to fill my heart with prayer, my voice with song, and my hands with service, that I may honor Him not just a thousand times, but for all eternity.

Text:
I've said all the words a thousand times or more,
When offering prayers all my days.
I've sung all the songs a thousand times before
to pray in my heart always.

Chorus:
What words can I speak? What songs can I sing?
That I will add to Thy praise?
A thousand times is not enough, No, 'tis infinity,
That I may praise Thy name again Throughout eternity.

Jesus shed His precious blood, a thousand drops for me,
In a sacrifice divine of love and agony.
What small gifts can I share With heartfelt words and song?
A thousand times or more to praise Him all day long.

Chorus:

A heart full of prayer, a voice full of song,
May I always remember Thee all day long.
With hands filled with service, A word of good cheer,
Seeking Thy Spirit, To ever draw near.

Chorus:
