Own Me Lyrics - Singles - Ginny Owens

Got a stack of books so I could learn how to live; 

Many are left half-read covered by the cobwebs on my shelf. 

And I got a list of laws growing longer everyday; 

If I keep pluggin' away, maybe one day I'll perfect myself. 

Oh, but all of my labor seems to be in vain; 

And all of my laws just cause me more pain; 

So I fall before you in all of my shame; 

Ready and willing to be changed- 

Chorus: 

Own me 

Take all that I am, 

And heal me! 

With the blood of the lamb. 

Mold me with your gracious hand; 

Break me till I'm only yours- 

Own me! 

You call me daughter, 

And take my blame; 

You run to meet me, 

As I cry out your name, 

So I fall before you in all of my shame, 

Lord, I am ready to be changed
