I strive for perfection
So that Your light might shine thorough me
I work past my hesitation
So that Your love could reach through me
And sometimes it seems
That despite everything
I’m getting nowhere fast
But, Lord, let me see at last
I live all of my life
For Your fame
And for Yours only
I live all of my life
For Your name
And for Your glory
‘Cause Your delight in me
Is all my reward
It’s worth everything
I give all of my life for
I learn to die to myself
So that You live Your life through me
I come to ask You for Your help
So that Your strength might be seen in me
I will seek Your face
Here in the secret place
Where no one sees what I do
My God, nobody but You
I live all of my life
For Your fame
And for Yours only
I live all of my life
For Your name
And for Your glory
‘Cause Your delight in me
Is all my reward
It’s worth everything
I give all of my life for
And even though I can’t see
The end or the beginning
I will trust in the promise that You give
That in everything I do
Lord, as long as it’s for You
You use every single day that I live
I live all of my life
For Your fame
And for Yours only
I live all of my life
For Your name
And for Your glory
‘Cause Your delight in me
Is all my reward
It’s worth everything
I give all of my life for
