I want to be a better person
I’ll walk with you Lord just to be that way
I want to listen to all that You say
I want to give in and not only take

I want to wake up each and every day
Walking with You – it’s the path that I choose
The time is right and there’s nothing to lose
Teach me Your will and please let me stay

Let me bask in Your daylight and live in Your Grace
Living the life that You’ve planned for me
I’ll never forget what You’ve done for me
I’ll never regret what You taught to me

The earth keeps on spinning as You tend to my needs
The life that I’m living is Yours don’t you see
May Your Heavens rain down on this tired old soul
Let Your never-ending Love serve to make me whole


You know what I want Lord and just what I need
The things that I’ve asked for, I’m glad to receive
If You’ll have it that way then I’m very much pleased
If Your answer is no, I will still believe
