More than Anything - Three Cord Wonder

I've been seeing myself in the wrong light,
I've been looking at the world through shadowed eyes,
I've been angry at myself - more than I have been upset at anyone before.
I've been listening to voices that don't really care,
I've been whining that my life is so unfair,
I've been failing the grasp....
When it's truth that I lack - You are my source.

I keep missing the point..
I keep forgetting that I don't know where I'm going.....
And that I'm nothing without You

Because I need You more than I need to breathe,
And I wanted so much more of You - means less of me,
And I feel You, I feel You, more than I ever believed.
And I love You, I love You, more than anything.

I've been blaming everybody for my own mistakes...
Accelerating where I know I should be using brakes.
While attempting to defuse it,
I found out that I blew it and everything's my fault
Got to stop selling out on what I know is true.
Time to stop compromising all my values
No more fake - now I'm real
It doesn't matter how I feel - You are my hope.

I keep missing the point......
I keep forgetting that I don't know where I'm going.....
And that I'm nothing without You.

'Cause I need You more than I need to breathe
And I wanted more of You - means less of me
And I feel You, I feel You, more than I ever believed
And I love You, I love You, more than anything.

I have fallen too hard.
I'm so in love with You...
I know I missed the mark of your unfailing truth.
You are always the same - I know you never change...
And I need You more than life.

I started praying again. And it was really nice... to really pour out my heart. I don't think anyone ever really knew.. I haven't prayed, like really prayed, in such a long time. I've been figuring things out.. like what I really believe, what prayer really is to me, whether or not I really want God to be the number one priority in my life, stuff like that. Now I know. I know with all my heart. Jesus Christ is my number one. I need Him to be my number one. Prayer is not just a mere asking of things, because no relationship should be based on asking and asking and asking. Prayer, for me now, is a pouring out of my heart. A giving of my life to Jesus. Building a relationship. It's like I'm truly free. I say things a lot. I know the right words to say. I can convince people. But now, it's really heart knowledge, not just head knowledge. Oh, I know.. this isn't going to be some walk in the park. I'm going to have to work hard, really hard, at this relationship. But it's all I really want - to serve the One who created me. It's all I want.

This doesn't mean I'm perfect. It doesn't mean I'm not going to mess up. Simply means that I'm not trusting *me* with my life. I'm trusting Jesus Christ with my life. I'm not scared of how my life will turn out - He's already got it planned.

Have a fantastic day.
