Jeremiah 29:11
Psalm 138:7-8

Lord you know everything there is to know about me open up my eyes so I can see you as you really are.

Chorus: O Lord you know when I wake up and when I fall asleep. You knew me Your eyes saw my unformed body, you knit me together in my mother’s womb. Lord before a word is on my tongue, you know it completely. I praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made, when I was woven together in the depths of the Earth, Your eyes saw my unformed body.

Verse 1: All the days ordained for me were written down in your book before one of them came to be. For I know the Lord will fufill his purpose for me, “For I know the plans I have for you” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you not to harm you, to give you a future and a hope

Chorus:

Verse 2: Though I walk in the midst of trouble you preserve my life; You stretch out your hand against the anger of my foes, with your right hand you save me.

So many people do things without thinking (10)
about the example that they are setting (10)
The truth is others watch us as Christians (10)
more than we may realize, but help us use (10)
that opportunity to evangelize, (10)
to show others what you’ve given unto us (10)

Chorus: When we live our daily lives others are always watching (14)
whether you like it or not the best way to show others (14)
truth is to live it everyday and to walk with Jesus (14)

Verse 1: How we act when we are alone is a measure of integrity (15)
and builds character; when we do whats right. While walking with Jesus is (17)
never easy, it is still important in reaching all my friends. (16)

Verse 2: When we live our lives the way you intended for us to live, (15)
when we follow in Your steps, we are actively showing others (15)
the gift of life you give. (6)

Chorus:

Verse 3: The most effective way to show others (10)
the only way to live is to live it out every single day. (16)
To live the way you want us to live is never a cakewalk (15)
but it is the only way to show others we don’t just talk (15)
the talk but we also walk the walk. (9)

Chorus:

Verse 4: You’re calling us to something higher than the standard the world sets. (16)
You’re calling us to run a different race; a race in which you have set the pace. (18)
Won’t you please show us how to run with perseverance the race marked out for us. (19)

Chorus:

Verse 5: No matter what we do, please help us run it first by you (14)
because you are our perfect example and anything that (14)
doesn’t match up with you not setting the bar higher but it is keeping (17)
us on the same level as the other nonbelievers and we (12)

cannot effectively witness if we are not constantly walking the way you want us to, (19)
we are only talking and wasting other’s time if we don’t do what you say. (18)
If our actions don’t back up all we do and say (12)
since we love God let us show others the way we live our lives and show them (18)
the way to live instead of just telling others the way to live. (16)
