Wanna Live


I wanna cherish the new day,

I wanna sing with the sunshine.

I wanna dance with the wind and

The stars in the nighttime.

I wanna live.

I wanna laugh.

I wanna love my God and people everywhere--

I wanna last.

 

His love surrounds me like a mist.

My God will always be there.

I've learned to trust in His promises

With which nothing can compare.

 

In the earth and in memory,

My dreams will live with the sunrise.

Christ in me it will always be,

Every day and moon-rise.
