Your Will
Lyrics:
[English]
I wake up and I talk to You Father
Wanna show You that I'm a good daughter
You said use all my gifts to serve others
And that's 1st Peter 4:10
And I'd been wrong not to acknowledge
That Jesus took me out of bondage
He told me right in Matthew 10
To speak in the light what we learn in the darkness, yeah
I was so afraid
Living life my way
Taking all the wrong turns
But end up in the right place
All because Your love was there to pick me up
Now I want what You want for me
If it ain't Your will
If it ain't Your will, I don't want it
If it ain't Your will
If it ain't Your will
If it ain't Your will, I don't want it
Noo-ooh
So could you make sense
Of what I've been through
I know Your promises always come through
Could you make sense of what I've been through
Lord, I know You gon' come through
Lord, please forgive the way I used to listen to my heart
More than I would listen to You
When You always knew what to do
And all the things I did living in sin is in the past
You said that the first would be last
And made me never wanna go back
Cause, I was so afraid
Living life my way
Taking all the wrong turns
But end up in the right place
All because Your love was there to pick me up
Now I want what You want for me
If it ain't Your will
If it ain't Your will, I don't want it (ooh)
If it ain't Your will
If it ain't Your will
If it ain't Your will, I don't want it
Noo-ooh
So could you make sense
Of what I've been through
I know Your promises always come through
Could you make sense of what I've been through
Lord, I know You gon' come through
