Dbm
I played the fool so long, thought I was so strong
A E
All the while You knew it wasn't true
Dbm
Rerunning in my mind, memories of another time
A E
When all I ever lived for, was You
Chorus:
Dbm A E
Jesus, make me the man You want me to be
Dbm A E
Jesus, make me the man You want me to be
Dbm
I've been listening all my life, Words are spoken all the time
A E
I have heard the liars and the true
Dbm
Voices twisting in the air, sweetly sounding so unclear
A E
But nothing can replace a word from You
Chorus:
Dbm A E
Jesus, make me the man You want me to be
Dbm A E
Jesus, make me the man You want me to be
Dbm
A child is but for so long, turn around those days are gone
A E
Nothing can replace the years of youth
Dbm
I have swallowed lies that tasted true, the plans I thought were sent from You
A E
When all You wanted was for me to be still
Chorus:
Dbm A E
Jesus, make me the man You want me to be
Dbm A E
Jesus, make me the man You want to see
Melody: [ A B Dbm ] x2
...
[Dbm A Dbm B ] x2
Ooh-- ohh- ohh-- ohh oh
Chorus:
Dbm A E
Jesus, make us the men You want us to be
Dbm A E
Jesus, make me the man You want to see
A E
The burning in the heart of our deepest desire
B Dbm
Is rising like a flame burning higher and higher
A E
The burning in the heart of our deepest desire
B Dbm
Is to know You
