Inside me is a heart marked with the expectation of a different life
It could be right here, or anywhere else, Lord

But what if this life that I have isn't what you really have for me
Could you teach me to find out about my self?

Who am I if the hurts are still hidden?
And who are the people I touch and enjoy thinking they're like me
How many more days do I need to understand
If I am someone or if I just think I am

Christ makes me surrounded by angels
And doesn't let me fall into the hidden points of my existence
He surrounds me with angels from heaven and not voices from here

Inside me is a heart marked with the expectation of a different life
It could be right here, or anywhere else, Lord

But what if this life that I have isn't what you really have for me?
Could you teach me to find out about my self?

Who am I if the hurts are still hidden?
And who are the people I touch and enjoy thinking they're like me?
How many more days do I need to understand if I am someone
Or if I just think I am?

Rid my mind of any deceit and shed the light of your forgiveness on me
Look inside this little being that is me and see if you still fit

I've moved the furniture of emotions out the door
And decorated it with God's true love
I never want to fall into the dark spots of the journey again
Since I believe that this other life is for me

If what I live doesn't matter, then give me a new story
So that I can be totally transformed

If what I live doesn't matter, then give me a new story
So that I can be totally transformed
Come and transform me completely!!!
May I be completely remade and set free

Christ makes me surrounded by angels
And doesn't let me fall into the hidden points of my existence
He surrounds me with angels from heaven and not voices from here

Rid my mind of any deceit and shed the light of your forgiveness on me
Look inside this little being that is me and see if you still fit

I've moved the furniture of emotions out the door
And decorated it with God's true love
I never want to fall into the dark spots of the journey again
Since I believe that this other life is for me

Christ I am loved, I am in you
Please change everything around you
Strengthen my mind and heart in your presence
And make me live!

A new love story in Jesus
I want to be used to announce that there is a new life full of love
Found nowhere else but in heaven
Covered with waters of life
Cover me with your light
Surround me with your love

Christ I am loved, I am in you
Please change everything around you
Strengthen my mind and heart in your presence
And make me live!

A new love story in Jesus
I want to be used to announce that there is a new life full of love
Found nowhere else but in heaven
Covered with waters of life
Cover me with your light
Surround me with your love Jesus
