Sometimes I think
What will people say of me
When I'm only just a memory
When I'm home where my soul belongs

Was I love
When no one else would show up
Was I Jesus to the least of those
Was my worship more than just a song

I want to live like that
And give it all I have
So that everything I say and do
Points to You

If love is who I am
Then this is where I'll stand
Recklessly abandoned
Never holding back

I want to live like that
I want to live like that

Am I proof
That You are who you say You are
That grace can really change a heart
Do I live like Your love is true

People pass
And even if they don't know my name
Is there evidence that I've been changed
When they see me, do they see You

I want to live like that
And give it all I have
So that everything I say and do
Points to You

If love is who I am
Then this is where I'll stand
Recklessly abandoned
Never holding back

I want to live like that
I want to live like that

I want to show the world the love You gave for me
I'm longing for the world to know the glory of the King

I want to live like that
And give it all I have
So that everything I say and do
Points to You

If love is who I am
Then this is where I'll stand
Recklessly abandoned
Never holding back

I want to live like that
I want to live like that, I want to live like that

NOTES - Sr. Kara's Prayer

When our hearts are broken and we can’t find the words,
Lord teach us to pray.
When noise overpowers the stillness of silence,
Lord teach us to pray.
When destruction is rampant and peace can’t be found,
Lord teach us to pray.
When lies and confusion distort the truth,
Lord teach us to pray.
 
When the darkness of sin casts a shadow on the goodness of humanity,
Lord teach us to pray.
When despair blinds our eyes of faith, 
Lord teach us to pray.
When doubt darkens our flame of hope,
Lord teach us to pray.
When hate hardens our hearts made for love,
Lord teach us to pray.
 
Teach us to pray with words,
with silence,
with action,
with pondering.
