lyrics

Just The Way That I Am
Dave Insley
(3:30)

I used to be clear as a picture, I never was meek as a lamb
Inside a fire’s always burning, that’s made me the man that I am
I can’t help the way that God made me, I just try the best that I can
Love me in spite of my sorrow, love me because I’m a man

Lord I know I’m not perfect, I’m a fool but I’m a man
And I hope that you’ll take me, just the way that I am
Just the way that I am, just the way that I am
Lord I hope you will take me, just the way that I am

I used to think that I could make it, I used to think that I’d be fine
I never thought I was in danger, of losing my heart or my mind
I can’t help the way that God made me, I just do the best that I can
Love me because of tomorrow, love me because I’m a man
