Keith Green

I was recently reminded of the greatness of Keith Green and his lyrics through a friend on Facebook. I decided to find the chords and play one of my favorite songs for myself. While playing it, I decided to record it, and ultimately share it. After all, the song speaks of sharing my beliefs, so if I didn't share it, I would be lying while singing it. (Yes, I think like that).

Anyway, the song is written by Keith Green. He had an incredible story. He is no longer with us as he and two of his children passed away in a plane crash in the early 80's. 

Sorry about the little delay in the video.

Make my life a prayer to you

I wanna do what you want me to
No empty words and no white lies
No token prayers no compromise

I wanna shine the light you gave
Through your son you sent to save us
From ourselves and our despair
It comforts me to know you're really there

Well I wanna thank you now
For being patient with me
Oh its so hard to see
When my eyes are on me
I guess Ill have to trust
And just believe what you say
Oh youre coming again
Coming to take me away

I wanna die and let you give
Your life to me so I might live
And share the hope you gave to me
The love that set me free

I wanna tell the world out there
You're not some fable or fairy tale
That I've made up inside my head
You're God the son and you've risen from the dead
