My will, oh, Lord
My deepest need, to you I give
For what I'd seek, and what I'd gain is foolishness
'Cause when I fight against your voice with a hardened heart
I am lost, toyed with and I stumble in the dark
So, I want your ways and not my ways
And I want your plans and not my plans
'Cause when you bless it's so much more than I could ask
♪
You turn in me, and from my earth bring loving fruit
Oh, Spirit breathe, and abide in me and I in you
Oh, bind your heart to mine and never leave
Oh, Jesus, keep me ever at your feet
'Cause I want your ways and not my ways
And I want your plans and not my plans
'Cause when you bless it's so much more than I could ask
Yeah, and I want your will and not my will
And I want your time and not my time
'Cause when your work is done, it's beautiful and right
When you call me, I'll obey and I won't resist
'Cause every part and every reach of me says "Yes"
'Cause I want your ways and not my ways
And I want your plans and not my plans
'Cause when you bless it's so much more than I could ask
And I want your will and not my will
And I want your times and not my times
'Cause when your work is done, it's beautiful and right
And I don't know how, but I can taste
That I will weep and laugh with praise
Because it pleases you to overwhelm with grace
