 Dbm              
 I played the fool so long, thought I was so strong
 A                                E
 All the while You knew it wasn't true
 Dbm 
 Rerunning in my mind, memories of another time
     A                          E 
 When all I ever lived for, was You


Chorus: 
 Dbm                 A                 E
 Jesus, make me the man You want me to be
 Dbm                 A                 E
 Jesus, make me the man You want me to be


 Dbm
 I've been listening all my life, Words are spoken all the time
 A                                E
 I have heard the liars and the true
 Dbm
 Voices twisting in the air, sweetly sounding so unclear
      A                               E
 But nothing can replace a word from You

Chorus: 
 Dbm                 A                 E
 Jesus, make me the man You want me to be
 Dbm                 A                 E
 Jesus, make me the man You want me to be


 Dbm
A child is but for so long, turn around those days are gone
  A                                E
Nothing can replace the years of youth
         Dbm
 I have swallowed lies that tasted true, the plans I thought were sent from You
      A                         E
 When all You wanted was for me to be still


Chorus: 
 Dbm                 A                 E
 Jesus, make me the man You want me to be
 Dbm                 A                 E
 Jesus, make me the man You want to see

Melody:  [ A  B  Dbm ]  x2

[Dbm   A    Dbm   B     ] x2
 Ooh-- ohh- ohh-- ohh oh  

Chorus: 
 Dbm                 A                 E
 Jesus, make us the men You want us to be
 Dbm                 A                 E
 Jesus, make me the man You want to see

                    A                      E
The burning in the heart of our deepest desire
                   B                       Dbm
Is rising like a flame burning higher and higher

                    A                      E
The burning in the heart of our deepest desire
            B   Dbm
Is to know You
