Ignoring the plans You had made for me
Building myself up to watch it all capsize
Shaping my world with false dreams and lies
Only by Your grace did I finally see the light
Only by Your power did I win the fight
You have made the difference in my life
Oh Lord, I owe everything to You
Chorus: So take me, change me, mold me to Your will
I give you all I have, use it to fulfill
Your visions my Lord.
Lord I must confess that I’m not the perfect child
But then You know me best so You’ve known that for awhile
I just want to be someone to make You proud
To shine a ray of hope in a hurting crowd
With Your help I hope one day I will become
Full of love, forgiving, a reflection of Your Son
And in Your time, my dreams will come true
Lord, I want to be like You.
Bridge: Sometimes I sit in unbelief my mind it can’t conceive
Why You’d send Your Son, the only One
To save someone like me
I never will repay You for all the things that You do
So take my life, here I am, I lay it down for You.
