All I Ever Have To Be

As I was journaling this afternoon, the Lord brought to my mind an old song that I haven't heard in ages, but it so perfectly fits with where I am at right now. For you old school Amy Grant fans, you may recognize this...

When the weight of all my dreams,
Is resting heavy on my head,
And the thoughtful words of help and hope,
Have all been nicely said.
But, I'm still hurting,
Wondering if I'll ever be the one I think I am,
I think I am.

Then You gently re-remind me,
That You've made me from the first,
And the more I try to be the best,
The more I get the worst.

And I realize the good in me,
Is only there because of who You are,
Who You are.

And all I ever have to be is what You've made me,
Any more or less would be a step out of Your plan.
As you daily recreate me, help me always keep in mind,
That I only have to do what I can find.

And all I ever have to be,
All I have to be,
All I ever have to be
Is what You've made me.
