Praise You

Lord,I really don't know how to write a song.
I'm not always eloquent, sometimes I get it wrong.
But the thing you're doing in me, I can't describe.
What a fool I'd be if I chose to hide
this transformation, new motivation.
Thought that we were close; I've known you all this time.
But I was just living life my way, just getting by.
Thought that if I do a good deed or two,
that'd be enough to please you.
I kept the parts I wanted to,
and missed out on the real you.

[Chorus]
Now, with every step and every breath,
I give it all; hold nothing back.
With all I am, this is my choice
to live to worship you.
So, with all my heart, my soul, my mind;
I'll love you, leave it all behind.
To live my life in awe of you
is the least that I can do.

I've held on so long to all my hopes and dreams.
While you were asking me to place them all at your feet.
Let my praise be more than a song I'll sing for you.
Let me change all my ways in response to you.
I've lived for myself, Lord, I need your help.
Not I who lives, but You.

[Chorus]

For you are worthy of all honor.
(and you) deserve the sacrifice I'll give.
You've touched my heart, and now I see
what it is you want from me.
So I'll lose the things that hold me back,
so you can set me free.

[Chorus]
