All I Ever Have to Be

I seem to be a person that goes through many peaks and valleys, but not so many plains. I struggle constantly with finding my place in G-d's plan and what my purpose is here on earth. In the low times, I feel like I am hanging from a cliff, barely able to hold on. In these times, I have a song that really helps me. Maybe you are struggling with something in your life. I hope this song can help, it's called All I Ever Have to Be, sung by Amy Grant. I must have listened to it 4 times today, already.

When the weight of all my dreams
Is resting heavy on my head,
And the thoughtful words of health and hope
Have all been nicely said.

But I'm still hurting,
Wondering if I'll ever be
The one I think I am.

I think I am.

Then you gently re-remind me
That you've made me from the first,
And the more I try to be the best
The more I get the worst.

And I realize the good in me,
Is only there because of who you are.

Who you are...

And all I ever have to be
Is what you've made me.
Any more or less would be a step
Out of your plan.

As you daily recreate me,
Help me always keep in mind
That I only have to do
What I can find.

And all I ever have to be
All I have to be
All I ever have to be
Is what you've made me.
