My life is borrowed, ‘tis not mine
I cannot hold it selfishly
But give it to the One above
Who gave His all, His life, His love
That I might one day see
I see with light that is not mine
I cannot make one star shine bright
Yet through the holes God makes in me
His Spirit shines, so I can be
A lantern, glowing Holy light
This light alone will light my path
It is a course I do not choose
My way, my will I give to Him
Who walked this earth and knew no sin
With Him I cannot lose
And so, my life, my light, my path
Are not for me, but God alone
No pain or sorrow come to me
That I am not assured will be
Exchanged for glory – at His throne
