Lord Help Me Be Lyrics - Singles - Mullins Rich

Rich Mullins 

Psalm 119:26-37, Matthew 6:19-21, Second Peter 3:9-13 

Lord help me be what You want me to be 

Being Yours is all that I want (all that I want) 

Your line is tight as a kite string 

And higher than the harmony in heaven's sweet song 

I tried to do it myself, but it left me stranded 

So many directions and no way to go 

The cards I was dealt made a promising hand 

But never got me into the show 

(Never got me into the show) 

But You give life to these dying songs 

Sharp as a knife to clean the marrow to the bone 

Lord help me be what You want me to be 

'Cause being Yours is all that I want (all that I want) 

Your line is tight as a kite string 

And higher than the harmony in heaven's sweet song 

I looked after my luck so my soul would play the game 

But you knew the rules so much better 

The moth and the rust will eventually claim 

Everything I took as my treasure 

(Everything I took as my treasure) 

But in You I have riches this world can't corrupt 

So help me believe it and trust in Your love (Love sweet love) 

Lord help me be what You want me to be 

'Cause being Yours is all that I want (all that I want) 

Your line is tight as a kite string 

And higher than the harmony in heaven's sweet song 

Oh Lord (Oh Lord) 

Oh Jesus (Oh Jesus) 

You never meant for us to go it alone 

I am so coarse (I'm so coarse) 

The world's so cheap (This world's so cheap) 

It's nothing like anyplace you'd want to call home (Home) 

Home, home 

Lord help me be what You want me to be 

'Cause being Yours is all that I want 

Your line is tight as a kite string 

And higher than the harmony in heaven's sweet song 

Lord help me be what You want me to be 

'Cause being Yours is all that I want (all that I want) 

Your line is tight as a kite string 

And higher than the harmony in heaven's sweet song 

Lai, lai, lai, lai, lai, lai, lai, lai, la
