You Can Have Me by Sidewalk Prophets

If I saw You on the street
And You said come and follow me
But I had to give up everything
All I once held dear and all of my dreams
Would I love You enough to let go
Or would my love run dry
When You asked for my life
When did love become unmoving?
When did love become unconsuming?
Forgetting what the world has told me
Father of love, You can have me
You can have me
If You’re all You claim to be
Then I’m not losing anything
So I will crawl upon my knees
Just to know the joy of suffering
I will love You enough to let go
Lord, I give you my life
I give you my life
When did love become unmoving?
When did love become unconsuming?
Forgetting what the world has told me
Father of love, You can have me
You can have me
I want to be where You are
I’m running into Your arms
And I will never look back
So Jesus, here is my heart
When did love become unmoving?
When did love become unconsuming?
Forgetting what the world has told me
Father of love, You can have me
You can have me
When did love become unmoving?
When did love become unconsuming?
Forgetting what the world has told me
Father of love, You can have me
My Father, my love
You can have me

Hear my Plea

Circumstances crashing down all around
Life right now feels like a million crushing pounds
You’re right here with me, so it says in your book
Yet, I can’t seem to find you anywhere I look
I know you say “Walk by faith and not by Sight”
But Lord, I’m so ready to let go of this fight

I long to be humbled in your presence
To bow down before you with all of my essence
I long to live for you and make you proud
Yet money and fame draw such an enticing crowd
No one seems to understand my decision
Or why I would want to make your glory my mission

I am so sick of this world and its lies
But what else will I do if otherwise?
They say I will starve to death if I choose your way
But you promised to provide for me every single day
My heart is divided and torn with fear
Lord won’t you please come and dry all of my tears?

You say there is great purpose for my life
I wish I could see beyond this overwhelming strife
“Oh God please help me” I pray
“Things will get better soon” they say
How much more God, what do you wish to prove?
I can’t do this much more, this place I long to move

Waiting doesn’t feel like much fun anymore
This season of adventure has become rather sore
My tolerance for pain is about up
Jesus won’t you please refill my cup?
I need you now more than ever
Please come through for me, I will cease to praise you never
