Russ Taff: I want to change [lyrics]

Russ Taff

I want to change

Lord, You know my past

Like clay the pains of life have molded me

The years have brought so many things

From examples I could see

Some good, some bad

They're all a part of me

But I see my selfish motives

And my inconsistencies

And block upon block, the wall was built complete

Oh, please, come and breake the wall down

And show this captive heart how to be free

CHORUS

I want to be like You

I want to change

And not be trapped in the patterns

My life has set for me

I want to be like You

Please help me change

Into what I was meant to be

Until all I can clearly see

Is the loving reflection of You in me

Teach me to forgive

Letting go of hurts I hide behind

Facing all of the things in me

I've buried deep inside

As Your healing love brings all of them to light

Let my life be an example

Of what true life can be

When it's given, like a gift, to those who need

Oh, please, come and take control of

This yielded, willing soul and live through me

CHORUS
