lyrics

I haven't lived too long
Only fought a few fights
But the life that I treasure comes with a great price
To lay down all I have and to risk every dream
For a glory much greater, a purpose redeemed

To be the man I'm called to be seems just beyond reach
On my own its like a weight I can't bear
What you'll learn about me as days turn to years
Is I long to be a man of prayer

I'm always falling from the greatest of heights
Choosing self over Jesus, choosing death over life
Feeling so hopeless, will I know victory
Or continue defeated, aching to live free

To be the man I'm called to be seems just beyond reach
On my own its like a weight I can't bear
What you'll learn about me as days turn to years
Is I long to be a man of prayer

Grace upon Grace abounds to a sinful man like me
Grace upon Grace abounds and it's setting me free

I pray to stand strong for the woman I love
To follow God's leading, to surrender my all
To walk pure and blameless in fear of my King
To serve and give wholly of all He's given me

To be the man I'm called to be seems just beyond reach
On my own its like a weight I can't bear
What you'll learn about me as days turn to years
Is I long to be a man of prayer

When I look my life; my kids and my wife
Will they say "He's been a man of prayer"
