Make My Life a Prayer to You

As I struggle for blog ideas, I figured I'd continue sharing song lyrics that I really like. This song came to mind today and I really like it...and old classic of Keith Green, Make My Life a Prayer to You:

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
Thru Your Son You sent to save us
From ourselves and our despair
It comforts me to know You're really there

Chorus
Well 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
And 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
And share the hope You 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 and You've risen from the dead

One of my favorites of Keith Green. It speaks the truth powerfully.
