(I want to be) Your Instrument

Do you see her? Over there, with angelic shine?
Radiance aglow, I almost don't believe she's mine
She is so beautiful, no one on earth can compare
Certainly she's a heavenly gift, an answer to prayer
A perfect match for me, chosen by God above
I will give my best; pledging to her a life of love...
I will be a tool of love flowing from Your fountain
Sharing a faith that can move any mountain
In my marriage I want to be a living testament
Lord Jesus, I want to be Your instrument

A goal is laid before me, an eternal impression
To lead my family in heavenly progression
Blessing and teaching them God's ways
Guiding and nurturing through every life phase
To be a rock, planted in Christ firm and strong
Building a place of safety, a place we belong...
I will be a tool of love flowing from Your fountain
Sharing a faith that can move any mountain
In my home I want to be a living testament
Lord Jesus, I want to be Your instrument

I have a place, giftings have been planted within
To sharing them, encouraging all in this race we win
Bringing a word of hope, or whatever is required
It is the Holy Spirit within me by which I am inspired
To His glory and Him alone all credit is due
I'm just a vessel conveying these words to you...
I will be a tool of love flowing from Your fountain
Sharing a faith that can move any mountain
In Your church I want to be a living testament
Lord Jesus, I want to be Your instrument

I know the path and I will stick to it all my days
Running the race with His strength, by His ways
Standing up for what I believe, speaking it out
To be clear that Jesus is what eternity is about
I will be a beacon of light to all who will see
Pointing people to the Savior and not me
I will be a tool of love flowing from Your fountain
Sharing a faith that can move any mountain
In the world I want to be a living testament
Lord Jesus, I want to be Your instrument

I desire to be worthy of the call upon my life
To be a husband and a real man to my wife
To be a light in dark places, unafraid to speak
Even if misunderstanding people label me a freak
I will not be shaken, I will stay the course
Keeping my eyes fixed; centered on the source
Help me Lord Jesus, to focus on Your ways
To follow Your teachings all of my days
In my life I want to be a living testament
Lord Jesus, I want to be Your instrument
