Lyrics
Make Me Someone New
©2007 Kim Ilene McDaniel (BMI) & Larry Seger (ASCAP)
VERSE 1
The acorn becomes the tree
How mighty a man can be
The higher I grow
The farther I fall
Into the hands of the Carpenter
CHORUS
Will I be Your table or Your chair
Will I be the cross that You bear
Will I be rough or smooth
Will I serve trouble or truth
I leave it up to You Lord
Make me someone new
VERSE 2
Houses on the sand
Built by this foolish man
The harder it rains
The faster they flow
Into the hands of the Carpenter
CHORUS
Will I be Your table or Your chair
Will I be the cross that You bear
Will I be rough or smooth
Will I serve trouble or truth
I leave it up to You Lord
Make me someone new
BRIDGE
Take me
Shape me
Recreate me
Make me someone new
Take me
Shape me
Recreate me
Make me someone new
Someone you can use
CHORUS
Will I be Your table or Your chair
Will I be the cross that You bear
Will I be rough or smooth
Will I serve trouble or truth
I leave it up to You Lord
Make me someone new
