Bob Carlisle Use Me Lyrics

It's been a long time comin'
I've laid around this old town for years
And, Lord, it's time that I stop runnin'
From the very voice that summoned me here
I can't hide Your calling forever
Start a fire in my soul
'Cause, Lord, I'm ready and willing
To give You my all

You just give me a vision
Show me a sign
Tell me You love me
Like the very first time
You've got the power
And I've got the need
I'm standing before You
Father, just use me

I've lived a lifetime of mercy
Hardheaded, and set in my ways
And if I've hurt You, dear God, I'm sorry
I took for granted Your amazing grace
But if there's one chance in a million
You could reach one soul through me Then, Father, I'm ready, and able
To answer Your call

You just give me a vision
Show me a sign
Tell me You love me
Like the very first time
You've got the power
And I've got the need
I'm standing before You
Father, just use me

(Take my hand)
Father take my hand, take my hand
(Don't look back)
No, there's no lookin' back
(Jesus, start a fire in my soul)
There's a fire in my soul
'Cause I'm ready and able
To give You my all

Give me a vision
Show me a sign
Tell me You love me
Like the very first time
You've got the power
And I've got the need
I'm standing before You
Father, just use me
