Use My Life (Swap Quatrain)

In the end it is I who will pay For the things I do and words I say The road ahead is full of bends It is I who will pay in the end In every bend there is a fork When I stutter I feel like a dork There is a message I hope to send There is a fork in every bend I love to be what you need Lord I see myself as your seed I confess so the world can see What you need I love to be Use my life Lord as you will Teach me how to think and feel You are first and then my wife Lord as you will use my life
