Someone Like Me

"someone Like Me"

Whatever you do, I'll do with You Lord,
Show me everything I need to be like You,
It all means something more to my LIFE,
And yet nothing to the People like me.

I can see there's so much to learn,
It's all so close and yet so far,
I see myself as my Brothers and Sisters see me,
Oh, I just know there's something bigger for my LIFE.

I need to know, can you teach me Lord?
I need to know about the better LIFE,
Why You chose a person like me Lord?
Something's familiar about these strangers like me.

Every gesture, every move that I makes,
Makes me feel like never before in my LIFE,
Why do I have This yearing to be beside You Lord.

Oh, these emotions I have, I never knew I could,
As if from some other world far beyond the Earth,
Beyond the trees, above the clouds, above the stars,
I see it all before me now a new horizon.

I need to know, can you teach me Lord?
I need to know about these People like me,
Tell me more Lord, please teach me Lord,
Something's familiar about these People like me.

Come with me now and see my world,
Where there's beauty beyond my dreams,
Can you see and feel the things I do?

I know You are right here with me Lord always,
Take my hand Lord and guide me,
There's a new LIFE I need to know about.

I need to know, can you teach me Lord?
I wanna know about these People like me,
Tell me more Lord, please teach me Lord,
...I need to know please teach me Lord...
