VERSE 1
|
I know I’ve spent my whole life running from you
|
Even though there’s been some things you needed me to do
|
I did it my way and hurt you over and over again
|
But you were preparing me
|
To carry out your plan
|
Though you said that you’d walk with me, some won’t believe
|
Cause the messenger you chose sings R&B
|
So the man that you rescued me from is the man that they still
|
And I don’t know what to say
|
I need you to speak for me
|
|
CHORUS
|
So Lord, this is my prayer
|
Your “work in progress” humbly asks of thee
|
Once your promise is fulfilled, the world will be watching anxiously
|
Lord help someone to see, the YOU in ME
|
Lord help just one to see, the YOU in ME
|
|
VERSE 2
|
Someone listening right now needs to hear this tonight
|
Cause you’re lonely and there’s an emptiness you’re trying to fill in your life
|
Well I guarantee that my God can do it, yes He can
|
His name is JESUS
|
You’ve got to let him in, and say
|
|
CHORUS
|
Lord, this is my prayer
|
Your “work in progress” humbly asks of thee (of thee, of thee)
|
When your promise has been fulfilled
|
And the whole world is watching anxiously
|
Lord help someone to see, the YOU in ME (Oh Lord)
|
Just help one to see, the YOU in ME (Please Jesus)
|
If only one could see, the YOU in ME
|
|
BISHOP EDDIE L. LONG
|
I want to speak to you right now
|
In the midst of your struggles, in the midst of your pain, in the midst of your
|
confusion
|
You wonder, “why am I here?” Glad you asked that questions
|
God said, You’re set apart for a special work, for His glory
|
That others will see you, but not see you and see HIM
|
Oh you need to hear this; you need to hear this because
|
You’ve been listening to the wrong people
|
He ordained you, and you don’t need anyone else’s approval
|
You’ve come fully equipped to do what God ordained you to do
|
You existed with God, even before you were formed in your mother’s womb
|
God knew you
|
It is amazing
|
You’ve tried everybody and everything
|
Jesus says, “stop fighting God” stop fighting
|
He’s knocking at your heart, saying, “let me in”
|
You’re so special
|
Let the glory of the Lord come through you, in the midst of all your confusion
|
He loves you
|
|
REPEAT CHORUS/ADLIB/END
|
|
Lord, Lord my, my, my, my prayer
|
I’m just a work in progress, but
|
I’m asking you, I’m begging you…
|
When you’re promise has been fulfilled, and the world is watching anxiously
|
Come on and help someone, Oh Lord
|
I don’t want nobody to see Montell, if they can’t see you
|
I’m talking to somebody, can I get a witness
|
You gotta see past the man, in order to see the You in me
|
