Worth

a rock ballad-- 8-17-2011

I may not be making the choices
That you want me to make
I may not be doing what you would do
But that doesn't make it a mistake
 
And I may not be rolling in money
Or living in Beverly Hills
But that doesn't mean that I'm worthless
I am important still
 
Because I find my worth
In who I am
And not in what I do
I find my worth
By being useful,
Loving and true
 
My clothes may not be
The highest fashion
But I don't care
I wouldn't want a mansion
 
I'd rather be happy with what I have
Than worry about what I don't
And I'd rather have a life I like to live
Than do things I hate-- I won't
 
Because I find my worth
In who I am
And not in what I do
I find my worth
By being faithful,
Loving and true
 
Faith and honor and
Love and purity
This is the person
That I really wanna be
 
Teaching and helping and
Reading and praying
Make my life great,
That's what I'm saying
 
Because I find my worth
In who I am
And not in what I do
I find my worth
By being faithful,
Loving and true
 
So use me, Lord
Use me, Lord
Use me, Lord!
 
'Cause I don't want
What the world wants
All I want is You
And I don't care what they say,
I'll do what You want me to do
 
Because I find my worth
In being your daughter
Through the grace of Your Son
I find my worth
By living only
For the True and Faithful One
 
Because I find my worth
In who I am
And not in what I do
I find my worth
By being faithful,
Loving and true
To You
To You
To You!
