Debbie-Ann - NOT THE SAME Lyrics

Thought my life was fine, it was all I'd known
Couldn't see all I needed, cause I was too comfortable
In being led by my flesh and how I would feel
But in all this I was searching, for what you alone fulfills

So since I've been, I've been, I've been taking my time
Trying to live in a way that's right
Reversing the conditions that I had on my mind
Yes, I've been, I've been, I've been taking my time
Trying to live in your way and not mine
I'm ready for a love that's sanctified

I hear you calling me changed
And Lord, I'm ready for that change
Cause there's too much I've seen and heard from your word
To stay the same I hear you calling me to move
Telling me you've got something new
So Lord, help me leave behind these old ways

My surrender was imperfect, I still want to control
But you showed me that freedom Is at the start of letting go
I want to keep growing deeper and know you more (as I'm growing in faith)
My life's no longer the same
Since he came in I've changed

He's been, he's been, he's been taking the time
Helping me walk in a way that's right
Wish I could say it's easy
But I serve a God who's worthy
He's been, he's been, he's been taking the time
Helping me walk in his way and not mine
I'm ready for a life that's sanctified

I hear you calling me changed
And Lord, I'm ready for that change
Cause there's too much I've seen and heard from your word
To stay the same I hear you calling me to move
Telling me you've got something new
So Lord, help me leave behind these old ways

See my old ways in my own ways (won't fill me)
Conforming to the world when you've restored me
Trying to live in the future but I keep looking back ( looking back)
I'm not alright with that
My old ways in my own ways, won't serve me
pouring from a cup that was empty
But I want it overrunning, I want what lasts

Now I hear that I've changed, know I'm ready for that change
Cause there's too much I've seen and heard from your word
To stay the same
I hear you calling me to move
Know there's nothing that I'd rather do
So Lord, help me leave behind these old ways

These old ways and my own ways But I am not the, not the, not the same
