I Want My Life to Preach by Ryan Stevenson
Verse 1
G D
I talk about grace
Am C
I talk about love
G
I talk about faith
D Am C
But some days I don’t have enough
G D
I talk about forgiveness
Am C
But still learning how to give it
G D Am
Lord, I need your strength to live what I believe
Chorus
C G
Cause I want my life to preach
D Am
Every breath, every beat
C G
I want my life to preach
D Am C
When I’m strong, when I’m weak
G D
Through valley lows and mountain highs
Am C
Every moment testifies
G D Am
Further than my words could ever reach
C G
Lord I want my life to preach
Verse 2
G D
I talk about peace
Am C
And I talk about hope
G
I talk about serving others
D Am C
But most days I don’t
G D
And I talk about freedom
Am C
But get lost in religion
G D Am
Lord, give me strength to live what I believe
Bridge
Am
Turn my days into your canvas
C
Let me stay open-handed
G D
With a humble heart to serve the least of these
Am
I want my faith to be in action
C
Let this flame of compassion
G D
Be louder than every word I speak
