Hymns 4 - Faith of My Own текст песни

Chorus:
Give me your strength
Give me your truth
Give me a faith of my own
Give me your strength
Give me your truth
Give me a faith of my own

When I was a boy not so long ago
I believed in You, but the faith was not my own
I know You???re by my side, but now I feel alone
Lost in this world where I???ve been thrown

I am not a child, I strive to be the man
Where faith is not just what I believe, it???s who I am
Help me to look on high, help me to take a stand
Lead me down the path to find your plan

Repeat Chorus

I need a faith of my own
What now?
Would you think that I???m grown up now?
Would you think that I???ve blown up now?
After what He has shown us
How could you think it would last?
Think it would not be a flash in the pan?
Think you would not need to ask of the Man?
Take a lasting grasp of His hand
So I???m wondering
How could He see in me?
How could His spirit be in me?
How could He use me just to see
That I need to be in His presence to truly see
That His message seeps into me
It holds fast, a slash through the heart of me?
My faith has got to last
And blast way past the place where I used to be

Strugglin??? with the faith I???ve been given
Confusin??? fantasy with the life I???ve been livin???
How can my faith be truly blessed
Unless it???s been tested and perfected
Give me a way to see
The chosen path You???ve laid before me
Give me the strength to lean on You
No matter where I???ve been or what I???ve been through
Faith (give me a faith)
That???s truly grown (I need a faith)
Faith
That I can just call my own
Bring me back to the place and the path and the life to me
That You???ve truly shown

Repeat Chorus

Now I am not a child, I strive to be the man
Where faith is not just what I believe, it???s who I am
