I tried to do the things in my own way

I tried to do what people say

but I was going nowhere fast

And now I'm turning to you at last



(1) What do you want me to do

What so you want me to do

What do you want me to do, Lord



I can see the lights of home

But I can't get there on my own

I can see the landing strip

But I need you to guide my ship



[Repeat (1)]



I've been a fool and I've been a clown

I've let the enemy turn me around

I've wasted love and I've wasted time

I've been proud and I've been blind



There's such a lot of things to change

A whole world to arrange

And if you show me how

I'll begin right now

[Repeat (1)]

What do you want me to do, Lord

What do you want me to do, Lord

"Cause I'm listenin'

I'm listenin'

Lord, I'm listenin'

I'm listenin'
