Show me the way to your will, your will
Help me bow down where your blood was spilled

Jesus I'm free because you were killed
Because you rose from the dead our salvation's fulfilled (0), (1)

Show us your will, your will for our lives (oh...)
We need your strength, to wake up and rise

This cup in our hands Lord is getting real hard
To drink from, live out, and truly take part (2)
In the will and the plans you have made from the start (3)
So give us the strength Lord to live out your will

The joy of the Lord, now, that is our strength (4)
Don't you be sorry to see that your sent
Sent to the captives to set them all free (5)
With Bread from the King, Living water as meat (6)

Jesus Christ, He is our bread (oh...)
And by His word, we are well fed

Show us the way to your well, your well (7) 
Show us the way to your well, oh Lord
Show us the way to your well, your well,
Of the Holy Spirit Lord help us take fill

He had no sin, yet, he stoned us not (8)
Freely He gave, His, life for our hearts (9)

Say in a word Lord and we shall be healed (10)
Healed of our sins, past and our unbelief
So even if our bodies die we can breathe
Breathe in eternity with the true King (11)

So show me the way, to your will, your will
Help us to know you're God and be still (12)
Show us the way to your will, your will
For your exaltation all people will kneel

Kneel, kneel and bow down (oh...)
Lord keep your will, deep down in our hearts (13)

You are the way, Jesus, you are the way (14)
Your mercies are new Lord, oh everyday (15)

0. 1 Corinthians 15:16-22 (KJV) “For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins. Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished. If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept. For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.”

Now in the Law, Moses commanded us to stone such women. So what do you say?” This they said to test him, that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground. And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said to them, “Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her.” And once more he bent down and wrote on the ground.

  1. Minu, how good to hear your voice again, especially in such a melodic way! There is so much truth here, even in lines that do not have a scripture reference. And the call for our Lord to show us His will is an ever present prayer on the heart of Christians. You have really capture so much with this song and deserve mighty praise for it. The very best to you and for this time of devotion to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen, Bruce
