Lyrics
Mistaken
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.
I shouldn't have to tell you who i am
Cause who i am should be speaking for itself
Cause if i am who i, i want to be
Then who you see won't even be me
Oh the more and more i disappear
The more and more he becomes clear
Chorus:
Til everyone i talk to hears his voice
And everything i touch feels the warmth of his hand
Til everyone i meet
Sees jesus in me
This is all i wanna be
I wanna be mistaken
For jesus
Oh i wanna be mistaken
Do they only see who we are
When who we are should be pointing them to christ
Cause we are who he chose to use
To spread the news
Of the way the truth and the life
Oh i want all i am to die
So all he is can come alive
Til everyone i talk to hears his voice
And everything i touch feels the warmth of his hand
Til everyone i meet
Sees jesus in me
This is all i wanna be
I wanna be mistaken
For jesus
Oh i wanna be
Oh i need to be mistaken
For you
Lord i wanna be mistaken
Mistaken
Bridge:
May he touch with my hands
See through my eyes
May he speak through my lips
Live through my life
I want him to
I want him to live
