Make My Life a Prayer

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

I want to thank you 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, just believe what you say.
Oh, you're coming again, coming to take me away.

I want to die and let you give
Your life to me so I might live,
To share the hope you gave to me,
The love that set me free.
I want to tell the world out there
You're not some fable or fairytale
That I've made up inside my head.
You're God the Son, you've risen from the dead.

I want to thank you 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, just believe what you say.
Oh, you're coming again, coming to take me away.

I want to die and let you give
Your life to me so I might live,
To share the hope you gave to me,
I want to share the love that set me free.
