I Want My Destiny
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Born to give my very best
To the One whose willingness
To give His life He just said yes
And here's the reason
He saw me out there all alone
So for my sin He did atone
He purchased me I'm not my own
I wanna please Him
So now I serve Him
Who brought me and is able to keep me all together
In the presence of His glory I found
That for my life His good and perfect purpose was designed
To bring me to the place where He has need of me
So I want my destiny, yeah
Can't settle for half or nothing short
Of what You made me to be or want me to be
'Cause I want it all
As I look around
The time is now
My mind is telling me
Gotta be gotta be destiny
Not called to sit upon the shelf
He did not die just for His health
And with the time we have
Let's waste not all on selfish reasons
But we must seek to please Him first
Find His will upon the Earth
When they look back from death to birth
They'll say they've seen Him
So we must serve Him
Who brought us and is able to keep us all together
In the presence of His glory we found
That for our lives His good and perfect purpose was designed
To bring us to the place where He needs us to be
Do you want your destiny, come on
Can't settle for half or nothing short
Of what You made me to be or want me to be
'Cause I want it all
As I look around
The time is now
My mind is telling me
Gotta be gotta be destiny
Hold on don't let go
To give up now would be jacked up for sure
The journey is long and hard is the fight
But we trust in the Lord in the power of His might
There's power in His Word
And He's gonna see us through
So keepin' the faith is what we've gotta do
To believe our God is more than able, able
Fight the good fight as we press towards the mark we push in
That we obtain His favor
So we will know and have true confidence that, the prize
Of His call is much greater
Say I really want my destiny come one say
I want it
I want it
Receive it
I need it
The will of God for my life, yeah
Gotta have it
Can't live without it
No doubt about it
The will of God for me, yeah, yeah, yeah
