 God
Made Me Just the Way I Am
GOD MADE ME JUST THE WAY I
AM
By Glenda H. Davis
God made me just the way I am
through my heredity;
His gift to me was Mom and
Dad; my gift to Him is me.
I want to be the best I can--
Show the world through who I
am
That my Lord works miracles
in me.
God loves me just the way I
am, and He knows every flaw;
When I consider how He loves
me, I just stand in awe
To think the God of all the
earth
Would send His Son by virgin
birth
Just to show His love on
Calvary--He died for me.
O Father, I don't
understand
Why You even bother with
man;
We're so undeserving,
While You are so worthy,
But I'm glad we're part of
Your plan.
God knew me in my mother's
womb and had a plan for me;
He knew the things that I
could do before I came to be.
He knew the problems I would
face,
Decisions I would have to
make,
And He gave me strength to
live for Him.
God has a plan for each of
us, and He knows what is best.
Why don't we let Him have His
way, and He will surely bless.
It matters not where we have
been,
He'll give us new life again,
If we'll trust Him now with
all the rest--and stand the test.
O Father, please help us
to stand,
When we feel rejected by
man.
Lord, we don't deserve
You,
But we long to serve You,
So now we put all in Your
hand.
God made me just the way I
am, then He made me His child;
Through Jesus Christ I have
new life, I have been reconciled.
Yes, Jesus took my sins away,
Paid the debt I could not
pay,
Then He showed me how to walk
that mile.
God loves me just the way I
am, but He wants me to be
More like Him with each
passing day, more of His Son in me.
Yes, I was born a babe in
Christ,
But I need to live my life,
Growing in your likeness
constantly--for all to see.
O Father, please help them
to see
More of Your likeness in
me.
Please help me be
learning,
My soul ever yearning,
To be all You want me to
be.
