[Intro – Spoken softly over piano]
🎤 “Lord… I’m standing here as I am.
Not perfect. Not whole.
But I know You’ve got the power to make me new.
So start with me… right here, right now.”
(Piano swells, choir hums softly)

[Verse 1]
I woke up this morning with tears on my face
Thinking ‘bout the choices I made yesterday
The weight of my failures pulling me low
But I hear You whisper, “Child, let it go”
I’ve been running from the truth, afraid of who I am
But Your love keeps reaching out with an open hand
You see my broken pieces, but You call me whole
Lord, I’m ready… come and take control
---
[Chorus – Choir joins softly, builds at end]
🎶 Change in me, Lord, let it start today
Make me a vessel of Your love and grace
I wanna heal, I wanna grow, I wanna give more than I take
Shine Your light through me, so I can brighten someone’s day 🎶
---
[Verse 2 – Stronger vocals, drums enter]
I passed by a stranger, saw the pain in his eyes
Felt Your Spirit whisper, “Don’t just walk on by”
‘Cause love’s not a feeling, it’s the life we choose
So I’ll pour out my blessings, like You taught me to do
I’ve been selfish, I’ve been blind to my neighbor’s cries
Chasing after hollow things that never satisfy
But You kept calling me back, with mercy in Your voice
Now I’m here to say, Lord, I made my choice
---
[Chorus – Choir full, claps and harmonies]
🎶 Change in me, Lord, let it start today
Make me a vessel of Your love and grace
I wanna heal, I wanna grow, I wanna give more than I take
Shine Your light through me, so I can brighten someone’s day 🎶
*(choir echo: “Brighten someone’s day…”)

[Bridge – Big key change, full choir, hand claps]
🎶 Break these habits, break these chains (Break these chains!)
Wash me clean in Your holy rain (Wash me clean!)
Fill me up till I overflow (Overflow!)
Let Your love in me be all they know 🎶
(repeat with choir growing louder)
🎶 Fill me up, Lord, till I overflow! (Overflow!)
Fill me up, Lord, till I overflow! 🎶
---
[Chorus – Repeat with energy, call and response]
🎶 Change in me, Lord, let it start today 🎶 (choir: Start today!)
🎶 Make me a vessel of Your love and grace 🎶 (choir: Your love and grace!)
🎶 I wanna heal, I wanna grow, I wanna give more than I take 🎶
🎶 Shine Your light through me, so I can brighten someone’s day 🎶
*(choir: Brighten someone’s day!)

[Vamp – Ad libs over choir repeating “Change in me, Lord!”]
🎤 “I’m ready for the change… I’m letting go of yesterday… Use me, Lord! Use me!”
🎶 Change in me, Lord! (Change in me, Lord!)
