Be That Way

Ever since I was a young boy
I’ve dreamed about what life had in store for me
But the future seemed so far away
And so did all it’s possibilities
Well, tomorrow is now today
Uncertainty seems to cloud my view
I need Your help to make my vision 20/20
So I get down on my knees and I lift my voice up to You
I wanna be the way that You want me to be
I wanna hear You say that You’re so proud of me
I wanna do the things that You want me to do
Oh Lord, I wanna be just like You
Those around, they don’t understand
The reasons why I do the things that I do
That’s okay, I’ve just got to remember
The only One who matters now is You
When I start to worry about all the things that they say
When their comments seem to cut me like a knife
That’s when I stop and think about all You’ve done for me
I close my eyes and remember the cross and thank You for my life
I wanna be the way that You want me to be
I wanna hear You say that You’re so proud of me
I wanna do the things that You want me to do
Oh Lord, I wanna be just like You
They way I feel for You is more than anything
That I have ever felt before
I don’t have much that I can give to You
So take my life – It’s Yours
I wanna be the way that You want me to be
I wanna hear You say that You’re so proud of me
I wanna do the things that You want me to do
Oh Lord, I wanna be just like You
