Rich Mullins: The Way To Love You

"Please take me with You walking
I'm ready to walk now with You
The path that You follow is narrow and straight
It leads beyond worlds I once knew

Please take me with You walking
My feet are so anxious to go
This slumber is empty and so far from the world
So far from the world that You know

Take me I'm Yours and I'm wanting to know
All You are and what I am when I am with You
Take me Jesus without You I know I am lost
And I need You to show me the way
The way to love You

Please take me with You dancing
I'm ready to follow Your steps
I've waltzed with wonders in armor that's shined
All polished and properly kept

Please take me with You dancing
These illusions all left behind
I'll take the feeling of life in my arms
Where once I felt left behind

Take me I'm Yours and I'm wanting to know
All You are and what I am when I am with You
Take me Jesus, without You I know I am lost
And I need You to show me the way
The way to love You

Though the deserts find me a-thirsting there
If You lead me I'll follow anywhere
Though the oceans toss me about in rage
I will walk with You over every wave

Call me and I'll wake from this tiring sleep
Let me know just one gratifying need
And when life is done and the dance is through
I will know the joy
Of having needed You

Please take me with You laughing
Knowing that life was well lived
Having had hungered for all that You are
There with You I will be filled

Please take me with You Jesus
I'm ready to join in the song
Morning is breaking
The silence is stirred
Life has only begun"
