Lyrics Steven Curtis Chapman

Steven Curtis Chapman

Whatever

I made a list, wrote down from A to Z

All the ways I thought that you could best use me

Told all my strengths and my abilities

I formed a plan it seemed to make good sense

I laid it out for You so sure You'd be convinced

I made my case, presented my defense

But then I read the letter that you sent me

It said that all you really want me from me is just

Whatever, whatever You say

Whatever, I will obey

Whatever, Lord, have Your way

'Cause You are my God, whatever

So strike a match, set fire to the list

Of all my good intentions, all my preconceived ideas

I want to do your will no matter what it is

Give me faith to follow where You lead me

Oh, Lord, give me the courage and the strength

I am not my own

I am Yours and Yours alone

You have bought me with your blood

Lord, to You and You alone do I belong

And so whatever
