i met a man walking up to me named andre
who said he goes by his last name
he believes in unconditional election
it don’t make since to me today
if it’s your will for them to recognize your favor
soften their heart to what you’d have ‘em hear you say
I struggle to understand the higher things he’s saying
in a pulpit speaking on grace
but i hear the pride in his voice
not of a work he’s done
that he believes he can boast in
but a God who called him by name
maybe I’m jealous cause I wish that I was worthy
to earn some kind of frame
in which you picture me in something more than mercy
wish I could earn my way
who could deny you if you show your face
but if you only drag some
‘at can it possibly say
‘bout your desire to save
help me believe as I struggle with discerning the ways in which you are
to be deserving of my praise
i yield my e’rything unto your understanding
if you granted me my strongest desire
let it not be a wisdom
of more than men
but a heart that’s after you
how am i to become a paul from the shell of saul i’m in
my appeals not coming from a place of impure sin
but a God who called me by name
maybe I’m jealous cause I wish that I was worthy
to earn some kind of frame
in which you picture me in something more than mercy
wish I could earn my way
i yield my e’rything unto your understanding
if you granted me my strongest desire
let it not be a wisdom
of more than men
but a heart that’s after you
how am i to become a paul from the shell of saul i’m in
my appeals not coming from a place of impure sin
but a God who called me by name
maybe I’m jealous cause I wish that I was worthy
to earn some kind of frame
in which you picture me in something more than mercy
wish I could earn my way
so would help me be humble
help me believe
keep me let me continue knowing
you’re everything I need
I wish I could earn my way
Thank you Jesus for showing I can’t
Change my heart to sing
I’m grateful that God
perfect unlike me
is the one who made and is
My Way
My Way
My Way
Braden
