In a way that matters,
in a way that shows that
I belong to you
Help me to serve, to care, and love
as you'd have me to
From a life that is pure
and a heart that is true
Give the courage to stand for
what's right
When everything within
would compromise
Lord, won't you fill me each day, and I will give myself only,
I pray, in a way that matters.
In a way that shows that I belong to you.
Help me to serve, to care and love,
and you to have me too
From a life that is pure,
and a heart that is true
Give the courage to stand for
what's right
When everything within would
compromise
Lord, won't you fill me each day, and I will give myself away,
I pray, in a way that matters.
Lord, I pray You'll
take me in Your arms
And hold my every motive to the flame
And keep them ever near
until they're to leave
Like a pot of gold
when the dross is burned away
In a way that matters
In a way that shows that I
belong to You
Lord, help me to serve,
to care and love that You have me to
From a life that is pure
and a heart that is true
Give the cour age to stand for
what's right
Everything will end,
everything will comprom ise
Lord, won't you fill me each day
I will give my self away
I pray in a
way that matters
Oh, oh, oh, Lord
For only by your fire
can I be yours
I'll be yours
Made alive to bear the cross
you bore in shame
Made ready for the joy
that lies ahead
As a witness to the power in your name
In a way that will matter
In a way that shows that I
belong to you
Lord, help me to serve, care and love
You'd have me too
From a life that is pure
And a heart that is true
Give me the strength to stand
for what's right
Everything within will compromise
Lord, won't you fill me each day
And I will give myself away
I pray, I pray
In a way that matters
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Amen
