Chorus / Description : The song Wannabe by Danny Gokey expresses the desire to be more like God in character, love, and selflessness, and to live life according to His ways.
You got that kinda love that don't go unnoticed
You got arms open wide as an ocean
You're always giving endless second chances
You're faithful and You never leave me stranded
You're patient
You're kind
Your heart is so much bigger than mine
You laid down
Your life
That's why, that's why, that's why...
I wanna, I wanna be more, more like You
I wanna, I wanna be more, more like truth
Losing every time I do it my way
So I wanna do it Yahweh
I wanna, I wanna be more, more like love
I wanna be living life with my hands up
I don't ever wanna do it my way
I wanna do it Yahweh
You are the perfect definition of goodness
You stay by my side when I think You wouldn't
God, You give Yourself away because You're selfless
Won't You teach me how to think of myself less
You're patient
You're kind
Your heart is so much bigger than mine
You laid down
Your life
That's why, that's why, that's why...
I wanna, I wanna be more, more like You
I wanna, I wanna be more, more like truth
Losing every time I do it my way
So I wanna do it Yahweh
I wanna, I wanna be more, more like love
I wanna be living life with my hands up
I don't ever wanna do it my way
I wanna do it Yahweh
I wanna, I wanna be
I wanna, I wanna be
Yahweh
I wanna, I wanna be
I wanna, I wanna be
Yahweh
I'm a wannabe
I'm a Jesus freak
Call me a wannabe
Cause I wanna be more like You
I'm a wannabe
I'm a Jesus freak
Call me a wannabe
Cause I wanna be more like You
I wanna, I wanna be more, more like You
I wanna, I wanna be more, more like truth
Losing every time I do it my way
So I wanna do it Yahweh
I wanna, I wanna be more, more like love
I wanna be living life with my hands up
I don't ever wanna do it my way
I wanna do it Yahweh
I wanna, I wanna be
I wanna, I wanna be
I wanna do it Yahweh
I wanna, I wanna be
I wanna, I wanna be
I wanna do it Yahweh...
