They asked me why,
What makes You, my Hero?
It is Your compassion,
the gentleness of Your heart.
It is the softness of Your Spirit
and that humbleness
which I desire.
Christ be formed in me.
It is You I have chosen
and like You I long to be.
It is the passion You showed
in all You did,
It is Your faithfulness and
dependancy on Your Father.
It is Your servant heart,
serving in all You do,
It is Your gentleness and
tenderness and the caring
love You have for me.
Christ be formed in me.
It is You I have chosen
and like You I long to be.
It is Your boldness,
yet stability,
making You stand up
a leader strong.
yes, Christ be formed in me.
This is why,
this is what,
makes You my Hero
and like You I long to be.
But alone I can’t
Alone I’ll fall,
Holy Spirit this is my prayer –
Take me by the hand
and lead me to be,
more and more like Thee.
