When Jesus came
When Jesus came
He showed the way
That we should love
And we should care
And we should live
Our lives.
For us to live the way we should
We need to change our ways;
The way we think;
The way we speak;
The things we do each day.
When Jesus came
He showed the way.
The way to think,
The way to speak
The things we need to do.
Help us to look to him
And learn
From all his ways.
Change
When we take too much,
We need to change.
When we say too much,
We need to change.
When we want too much,
We need to change.
When we don’t ask you,
We need to change.
When we turn to you,
You help us change.
Bigger
Jesus, we’re sorry when our thoughts,
Our plans,
Our dreams
Are so much smaller
Than those you have for us.
Jesus, make our thoughts,
Our plans,
Our dreams
Bigger, bolder, brighter.
Make them yours.
Jesus
Jesus,
Take us.
Jesus,
Hold us.
Jesus,
Change us.
Jesus,
Shape us.
Jesus,
Make us new.
