In a world that's lost and dying seems like time is almost done
Help me strive to live my life as if I've just begun
with the courage to stand boldly and be humble just the same
then I call upon Your name
I want to have a fire burning deep inside
shining so brightly that I just can't hide
(chorus)
I want to be salt, salt to flavor and to work
I want to be light, light to shine upon the earth
I want to be love to everyone
I want to be bold, bold to speak the truth in love
I want to have living water flowing down from above
I want to be, oh I want to be
Lord I want to be yours
In a world that's cold and lonely
things get darker by the day
Help me strive to live so others may see the way
may the words that I speak and the things that I do
Cause others to see You
Lord take my life and wash away my fear and doubts
with You as my fire I will never go out
(bridge)
Teach me Lord to find a way to be salt everyday
Lord wherever You send help me be flavor
