|
Got a stack of books so I could learn how to live; |
|
Many are left half-read covered by the cobwebs on my shelf. |
|
And I got a list of laws growing longer everyday; |
|
If I keep pluggin' away, maybe one day I'll perfect myself. |
|
Oh, but all of my labor seems to be in vain; |
|
And all of my laws just cause me more pain; |
|
So I fall before You in all of my shame; |
|
Ready and willing to be changed- |
|
Chorus: |
|
Own me |
|
Take all that I am, |
|
and heal me! |
|
With the blood of the Lamb. |
|
Mold me with Your gracious hand; |
|
Break me till I'm only Yours- |
|
Own me! |
|
You call me Daughter, |
|
And take my blame; |
|
You run to meet me, |
|
As I cry out Your name, |
|
So I fall before You in all of my shame, |
|
Lord, I am ready to be changed |
