Sometimes I think I am wise Sometimes I claim the gifts that you give As though they were mine Sometimes I guess at what you want But every time I trust my own mind I am wrong God have your way in me I don't want to have my own way There's a way that seems right to me But it leads to death God have your way in me I don't want to have my own way There's a way that seems right to me But it leads to death So who names the stars? Who split the sea? Who wrote the Book? And all the pages of history? I'm outta breath Still you answer me You give what I lack All I need is ask So I'm asking please God have your way in me I don't want to have my own way There's a way that seems right to me But it leads to death God have your way in me I don't want to have my own way There's a way that seems right to me But it leads to death 'Cause your ways are higher And your thoughts are higher And your plans are better for me 'Cause your ways are higher And your thoughts are higher And your plans are better for me Yeah your ways are higher And your thoughts are higher And your plans are better for me God have your way in me I don't want to have my own way There's a way that seems right to me But it leads to death
