The You In Me

I know I've spent my whole life running from you
Even though there's been some things you needed me to do
I did it my way and hurt you over and over again
But you were preparing me
To carry out your plan
Though you said that you'd walk with me  some won't believe
Cause the messenger you chose sings R&B
So the man that you rescued me from is the man that they still
And I don't know what to say
I need you to speak for me
So Lord  this is my prayer
Your work in progress humbly asks of thee
Once your promise is fulfilled  the world will be watching anxiously
Lord help someone to see  the YOU in ME
Lord help just one to see  the YOU in ME
Someone listening right now needs to hear this tonight
Cause you're lonely and there's an emptiness you're trying to fill in your life
Well I guarantee that my God can do it  yes He can
His name is JESUS
You've got to let him in  and say
Lord  this is my prayer
Your work in progress humbly asks of thee (of thee  of thee)
When your promise has been fulfilled
And the whole world is watching anxiously
Lord help someone to see  the YOU in ME (Oh Lord)
Just help one to see  the YOU in ME
If only one could see  the YOU in ME
I want to speak to you right now
In the midst of your struggles  in the midst of your pain  in the midst of your
Confusion
You wonder  why am I here  Glad you asked that questions
God said  You're set apart for a special work  for His glory
That others will see you  but not see you and see HIM
Oh you need to hear this; you need to hear this because
You've been listening to the wrong people
He ordained you  and you don't need anyone else's approval
You've come fully equipped to do what God ordained you to do
You existed with God  even before you were formed in your mother's womb
God knew you
It is amazing
You've tried everybody and everything
Jesus says  stop fighting God stop fighting
He's knocking at your heart  saying  let me in
You're so special
Let the glory of the Lord come through you  in the midst of all your confusion
He loves you
Lord  Lord my  my  my  my prayer
I'm just a work in progress  but
I'm asking you  I'm begging you
When you're promise has been fulfilled  and the world is watching anxiously
Come on and help someone  Oh Lord
I don't want nobody to see Montell  if they can't see you
I'm talking to somebody  can I get a witness
You gotta see past the man  in order to see the You in me
