‘Take And Hold Me, Shape And Mold Me’
I’m watching and waiting, anticipating
All the things that God wants me to see
Responding and changing
Transforming, arranging
Turning into the person your love can make me
Take me and hold me, shape me and mold me
Make me something I couldn’t become
On my own, lord, not alone, lord
Without your help and your grace and your love
I’m listening and praying, it goes without saying
For each word my creator will speak
Paying attention, craving comprehension
Striving to be the person you want me to be
Take me and hold me, shape me and mold me
Make me something I couldn’t become
On my own, lord, not alone, lord
Without your help and your grace and your love
You’re wondrous, amazing, someday I’ll be gazing
At your face when this world I depart
Until then, I’ll ponder, praise you as I wander
You have changed me forever, thanks for the fresh start
Take me and hold me, shape me and mold me
Make me something I couldn’t become
On my own, lord, not alone, lord
Without your help and your grace and your love
