Make my life a prayer to you - Matt Redman

Given my state of complacency regarding my faith and service to God, this song encourages me not to be too comfortable. Like the song, I want to make my life a prayer to God and shine the light he gave. To thank God for being patient even though our eyes are on ourselves instead of on him. It also touches upon salvation and reminds us of the sacrifice that Jesus did for us that we too often do not tell the world.

Make my life a prayer to you - Matt Redman

Make my life a prayer to You

I want to do what You want me to

No empty words, no white lies

No token prayers, no compromise

I want to shine the light You gave

Through Your Son You sent to save us

From ourselves and our despair

It comforts me to know You're really there

Well, I want to thank You now for being patient with me

Oh, it's so hard to see when my eyes are on me

I guess I'll have to trust and just believe what You say

Oh, You're coming again, coming to take me away

I want to die and let You give Your life to me that I might live

And share the hope You gave the me

The love that set me free

I want to tell the world out there

You're not something or fairy tale

That I've made up inside my head

You're God the Son, You've risen from the dead

I want to die and let You give Your life to me that I might live

And share the hope You gave to me

I want to share the love that set me free

Make my life a prayer to you - Matt Redman
