extrasDear GodDear God it's been a while since we had a chatSo I thought I'd let you know just where my life was at You know it's been a pretty rough day for me today All my hopes and dreams came crashing down and my plans were washed away It seems that every time that I think that everything's all sweet There's something else just comes along and knocks me right up off my feet And usually I just fall on my face and take a while to get up But I'm sick of life like that so this time I thought hold up How 'bout falling on my knees while this prayer to you I write Cos I know that it's only you that can dull the pain that I feel inside And how you do, I know I'll never understand But as a broken man with broken plans...Here I am Giving you my everything I'm laying my whole world down Giving you my heart and soul Here I am here I am Giving you my everything I'm laying my whole world down Giving you my heart and soul Here I am here I am Dear God it's me again, I've had a good day today Just thought I'd have a talk to you to see what you've got to say Been thinking about those plans of mine and why they didn't work out I read your book to have a look at what this life is all about And I realised that it's not about me, my way only causes strife That's why I need to get it right and get your purpose in my life So I thankyou for the life in you and that life to me you give I pray that as I live my life it's your life that I live And as I come before you now I'm so much better off than before Because this broken part of me is right now being restored So it's to you that I'll be lifting up my hands Still falling on my knees cos I still don't understand but here I am Giving you my everything I'm laying my whole world down Giving you my heart and soul Here I am here I am Giving you my everything I'm laying my whole world down Giving you my heart and soul Here I am here I am Dear God sometimes I just don't understand this life Cos every time that I think that I got it sorted out alright There's something else just comes along, a twist I didn't see And my life get's twisted up and I had enough and I need your help You see there must be more to life than just surviving day to day Cos otherwise it's nothing but a meaningless decay And the meaninglessness is what makes me hollowed up inside So show me what it is that makes me really come alive Cos I want to be alive in you as this life in you I live And living life all hollowed out leaves no alternative But to fall upon my knees and pray a prayer that's overdue Lord fill the void inside of me Lord fill it up with you Cos only you can bring the peace to saturate my soul And only you can bring the peace that really makes me whole So it's to you that I'm still lifting up my hands AndyD I'm still a broken man but here I am Giving you my everything I'm laying my whole world down Giving you my heart and soul Here I am here I am Giving you my everything I'm laying my whole world down Giving you my heart and soul Here I am here I am (Live version only) Here I am I'm just a broken man Longing to understand What is your master plan What would you have for me Lord please help me to see And I'll do all I can to find my promised land Cos here I am Giving you my everything I'm laying my whole world down Giving you my heart and soul Here I am here I am Giving you my everything I'm laying my whole world down Giving you my heart and soul Here I am here I am Words by Calling Elijah and Hannah Donald Music by Calling Elijah ©Copyright 2006 Calling Elijah Back to Extras |
