| I played the fool so long | |
| thought I was so strong | |
| all the while You knew it wasn't true | |
| rerunning in my mind | |
| memories of another time | |
| when all I ever lived for | |
| was You | |
| Jesus | |
| make me the man that You want me to be | |
| Jesus | |
| make me the man that You want me to be | |
| I've been listening all my life | |
| words are spoken all the time | |
| I have heard the liars and the true | |
| voices twisting in the air | |
| sweetly sounding so unclear | |
| but nothing can replace a word | |
| from You | |
| a child is but for so long | |
| turn around those days are gone | |
| nothing can replace the years of youth | |
| I have swallowed lies | |
| that tasted true | |
| the plans I thought were sent from You | |
| when all You wanted was for me | |
| to be still | |
| Jesus | |
| make me the man that You want me to be | |
| Jesus | |
| make me the man You want to see | |
| the burning in the heart | |
| of man's deepest desire | |
| is rising like a flame | |
| oooh... | |
| Jesus | |
| make us the men you want us to be | |
| Jesus | |
| make me the man You want me to be | |
| the burning in the heart | |
| of our deepest desire | |
| is rising like a flame | |
| burning higher and higher | |
| burning in the heart | |
| of our deepest desire | |
| is to know You | |
| the burning in the heart | |
| of our deepest desire | |
| is rising like a flame | |
| burning higher and higher | |
| burning in the heart | |
| of our deepest desire | |
| is to know You (Jesus) | |
| the burning in the heart | |
| of our deepest desire | |
| is rising like a flame | |
| burning higher and higher | |
| burning in the heart | |
| of our deepest desire | |
| is to know You (yeah) | |
| Jesus | |
| make us the men you want us to be |
