I want...

I want to be someone people can trust.
I want talking to me to be a must.
I want to be God's shining light,
In the darkness of those scary nights.
I want to be the one people confide in,
When everything seems just too thick or thin.
I want to be a hand to hold,
Never thinking our friendships too old.
I want to be looked at with surprise,
With joy and peace in peoples eyes.
I want to be able to make everything right,
To see past the mist and the blindness of sight.
I want to be able to do as I please,
But never anything God doesn't see.
I don't want to care what people think,
But I want to stop them from drowning as they sink.
I want to rely on God through it all,
Hopein' and knowin' I'll be caught when I fall.
But mostly I want to just to just be myself,
I don't want to be caught up with everything else.
The world and its pressures and all of its faults.
My sin and my sickness, the worlds music, its waltz.
I want to be only who God wants me to be,
I just want to see the world the way that he sees.
I want nothing but his will in this world full of pain.
I realize now that there's nothing else left to gain.
