What do I gain if I win the whole world
But wake up to find that I've lost my soul?
I thought I'd find myself
But something was missing, it's not what I wanted
I didn't have to look high or look low
Your love met me when I began to let go
You showed me a new way
Where nothing is missing, You're all I wanted
You stepped right into my story
And showed me there's a better meaning
I'm living, living
You changed my life for Your glory
I've decided I don't want to fit in
No, no, I'm living, living, oh
Some say I'm crazy for giving it all
But I'm gonna love You with all of my heart
I don't want it any other way
It's more than a feeling and You are the real, real thing
You stepped right into my story
And showed me there's a better meaning
I'm living, living
You changed my life for Your glory
I've decided I don't want to fit in
I'm living now
This is how it's meant to be, meant to be
Knowing You is knowing me, knowing me
What You want I want
My life is Yours
This is how it's meant to be, meant to be
Knowing You is knowing me, knowing me
What You want I want
My life is Yours
You stepped right into my story
And showed me there's a better meaning
I'm living, living
You changed my life for Your glory
I've decided I don't want to fit in
I'm living, living
This is how it's meant to be
Knowing You is knowing me
This is how it's meant to be, meant to be
Knowing You is knowing me, knowing me
What You want I want
My life is Yours
