The Way I Was Made




Caught in the half-light, I’m caught alone
Waking up to the sunrise and the radio
Feels like I’m tied-up, what’s holding me?
Just praying today will be the day I go free

I want to live like there’s no tomorrow
I want to dance like no one’s around
I want to sing like nobody’s listening
Before I lay my body down
I want to give like I have plenty
I want to love like I’m not afraid
I want to be the man I was meant to be
I want to be the way I was made

Made in Your likeness, made with Your hands
Made to discover who You are and who I am
All I’ve forgotten help me to find
All that You’ve promised let it be in my life

I want to live like there’s no tomorrow
I want to dance like no one’s around
I want to sing like nobody’s listening
Before I lay my body down
I want to give like I have plenty
I want to love like I’m not afraid
I want to be the man I was meant to be
I want to be the way I was made

The way I was made .................... Oh, I long for that! Someday I will be perfect, no more flaws, imperfections or blemishes. No more aches or anguish. No more fears, no more insecurities, no more! Until that day (oh, what a glorious day it will be!), I can only turn to Jesus for His grace to live each day, one day at a time, reflecting Him and His glory and becoming ever more like His beautiful likeness. The way I was made to be.
