I used to do okay on my own, think I was made of stone and I could carry a heavy load,
Never thought that one day I'd be all alone,
And then the road got long; I saw I was wrong and had no one to lean upon,
But you kept me from falling far below, and taught me something I had ever known that...

You, Lord, you, Lord, can hold my heart in your hand,
And you, Lord, you, Lord, can change me with a fleeting glance,
And you, Lord, you, Lord, can push me to know greater things.

If I had a dime for every time I've tried to live this on my own, I guess I'd be a rich man, wouldn't I' (be a rich man)
But money never bought me peace, love, or happiness; it only seemed to make a mess,
And right about then I'd open my eyes, and once again I realised that...

You, Lord, you, Lord, can hold my heart in your hand,
And you, Lord, you, Lord, can change me in a fleeting glance,
And you, Lord, you, Lord, can push me to know greater things

Push me out, until I stand on stone and say I've made a choice,
Push me down, until I'm on my knees and listing for your voice,
Push me around, until my life touches others and they see what I've found,
Show me how I can take this life and give it away.

You, Lord, you, Lord, can hold my heart in your hand,
You, Lord, you, Lord, can change me in a fleeting glance,
And you, Lord, you, Lord, can push me to know that it's...
You, Lord, you, Lord,
You, Lord, you, Lord,
You, Lord, you, Lord, can push me to know greater things.
