Natalie Grant is one of my favorite singers.  I have almost every CD of hers.  The CD called Awaken had never been one that I was too crazy about.  For whatever reason, about 3 weeks ago I pulled out the CD and it is amazing.  God has been speaking to me through so many of these songs.  I'm posting the lyrics to a song off that album called 'MAKE ME OVER'.   The words have truly become a prayer for me.
MAKE ME OVER
      I've been silent instead of speaking up
      Gave my advice instead of giving love
      I have been unfair, faithless and unkind
      I have shut my eyes just so i would stay blind
      It's not what i meant to do
      Cause i wanna honor you
     
      CHORUS
      Make me over, make me new
      Make me a mirror, a reflection of you
      Take me all apart
      Take me to your heart and pull me closer
      Oh, Jesus, make me over
     
      Take away the pride that whispers in the dark
      Take the stone out of the middle of my heart
      Hidden underneath my insecurities
      Is the servant that you've destined me to be
      But day after precious day
      I get in my own way
     
      Make me over, make me new
      Make me a mirror, a reflection of you
      Take me all apart
      Take me to your heart and pull me closer
      Sweet savior, make me over
     
      I am only made of your imagining
      I'm dust and clay on the wind
      Wash me in the river of your sacrifice
      Until i'm changed, purified
      Take me all apart
      Take me to your heart and pull me closer
      My Jesus, make me over
      Make me over
