i want to live like that




I Want to Live Like That
by Sidewalk Prophets

Sometimes I think
What will people say of me
When I'm only just a memory
When I'm home where my soul belongs
 
Was I love
When no one else would show up
Was I Jesus to the least of those
Was my worship more than just a song
 
I want to live like that
And give it all I have
So that everything I say and do
Points to You
 
If love is who I am
Then this is where I'll stand
Recklessly abandoned
Never holding back
 
Am I proof
That You are who you say You are
That grace can really change a heart
Do I live like Your love is true
 
People pass
And even if they don't know my name
Is there evidence that I've been changed
When they see me, do they see You
 
I want to live like that
And give it all I have
So that everything I say and do
Points to You
 
If love is who I am
Then this is where I'll stand
Recklessly abandoned
Never holding back
 
I want to live like that
I want to live like that
  I want to show the world the love You gave for me
I'm longing for the world to know the glory of the King

I want to live like that
And give it all I have
So that everything I say and do
Points to You

    Oh Debbie, thank you for your lovely poem. You know what? I write poetry. Have you seen mine? I have it in a page at the top of my blog, right under my banner.

    Thank you for your kind comments all the time. I love springtime; all the months that are in spring. But February is more special because even crocuses bloom in February, being the very first sign of spring. We finally have temps in the 40s here today. Whaaaahooooo!

    Hugs,
    Betsy

    That grace can really change a heart?"
