PUT ME IN MY PLACE Lyrics and music by Gary ("Rick Robinson") Fearon
You've given me the things I need, my every dream fulfilled Yet here am I, unsatisfied, and wanting greater still For I can't hide the selfish pride that wants to claim it all Lord, won't You come before I fall?
Put me in my place A humble heart, full of faith Give me peace that this world can't replace Show me where to go This is all I need to know Help me run the race, fill the empty space Put me in my place.
I never planned to be a man so taken with himself I come down hard without regard to anybody else For all the people I have hurt with a careless thought or a thoughtless word Lord, help me live what I have learned
Put me in my place A humble heart, full of faith Give me peace that no one can replace Show me where to go This is all I need to know Help me run the race, fill the empty space Put me in my place.
Teach me to begin again and lead me by the hand I will do all that I can No, I don't need to know your plan, I wouldn't understand But if there's a place for me That's where I want to be
Put me in my place With a humble heart, and a sense of grace Give me peace and I will keep the pace Show me where to go This is all I need to know Let me run Your race, 'til I can see Your face Fill this empty space Put me in my place.
