i give myself away

when i was twelve. i had such plans for my life. it was always something revolving around being married. a mom. being involved in ever aspect of my family. living in california. loving california.

im now twenty six. all to close to thirty. and not in the place that i thought i would be when i was twelve. and i thinking about why. why havent i reached that place. why are thoes things  not overly important to me. sure i think about them often. but they arent what makes me tick. they arent what i live for.

i cant get this song out of my head. it has been playing over and over in my head. there is a reason that MY plans havent come to play. because my life is not my own. the second verse of this song says "All my dreams all my plans Lord I place them in your hands" and thats the exact reason that my plans havent come. my timing isnt perfect. sometimes i need to remember that there is a bigger plan that what i see.

I GIVE MYSELF AWAY

Chorus:

I give myself away

I give myself away

So You can use me

I give myself away

I give myself away

So You can use me

Verse 1:

Here I am

Here I stand

Lord, my life is in your hands

Lord, I’m longing to see

Your desires revealed in me

I give myself away

Verse 2:

Take my heart

Take my life

As a living sacrifice

All my dreams all my plans

Lord I place them in your hands

Bridge:

My life is not my own

To you I belong

I give myself, I give myself to you
