about

Sometimes it's easy to fall into the trap of doing the things you want to do and asking God to bless that, rather than divining his will. Other times it's hard to work out what God's will is! This song is about that. (Luke 11:2, Luke 22:39)

lyrics

I’ve got it all worked out. I know what you want from me
I have got my life in boxes; You’re in box number three
I’ve made a list of all my strengths
All the thing I am going to do
It must be such a privilege to have me doing this for you

But there’s an aching in my heart
When I take the time to pray
Maybe this is not the way to start?
Maybe I should look to you and say;

Your will be done on Earth as in Heaven
Your kingdom come.

So I will think again about what you want from me
I will try to go your way, I’ll try to live life differently
Sometimes it’s hard to know what’s right
And what you’re asking me to do
So guide me, show me, teach me how to live my life for you

I will ask for what I want and I will make the time to pray
But God, if you want something else, give me the strength to say;


And I read about a man who got down on his face to pray
He said: “Father I don’t want cup. Does it have to be this way?”
He could have run, he could have fled, said “I won’t do this any more”
But he turned around instead, said “Father, not my will, but yours.”
