Make My Life a Prayer to You Songtext
von Keith Green

Make my life a prayer to You
I wanna do what You want me to
No empty words and no white lies
No token prayers, no compromise
I wanna shine the light You gave
Through Your Son You sent to save us
From ourselves and our despair
It comforts me to know
You′re really there

Well, I wanna thank Ya now
For being patient with me
Oh, it's so hard to see
When my eyes are on me
I guess I′ll have to trust
And just believe what You say
Oh, You're coming again
You're coming to take me away


I wanna die and let You give
Your life to me so I might live
And share the hope Ya gave to me, the love that set me free
I wanna tell the world out there
You′re not some fable or fairy tale
That I′ve made up inside my head
You're God, the Son, You′ve risen from the dead

Oh, I wanna thank Ya now
For being patient with me (with me)
Oh, it's so hard to see
When my eyes are on me
I guess I′ll have to trust
And just believe what You say
Oh, You're coming again (coming again)
You′re coming to take me away

I wanna die and let You give
Your life to me so I might live
And share the hope You gave to me
I wanna share the love
That set me free
