Being Myself In Jesus Lyrics by Graham Kendrick

Breaking of the Dawn

1976

[Verse 1]
Being myself is not half so bad as I thought that it might be
Living in the love of Jesus who loves the likes of me
And isn't it good to know that I don't even have to try
To fight for a place in this old human race
Since I'm already home and dry
[Verse 2]
Seems to me that the things I like are the things I can do well
Seems to me that the things I hate are the things in which I fail
But isn't it good to know that there's someone who understands
And when I give up He still loves me so much
As when I'm doing the best I can
[Chorus]
So I'm being myself in Jesus
And He's being Himself in me
I'm being myself in Jesus
And that's the way to be
I'm being myself in Jesus
And He's being Himself in me
And the life that He gives is the life that I live
And I'm living it naturally
[Verse 3]
So many times I have tried to be something that I'm really not
Thinking so much of the things I lack, I forget the things I've got
Yet it's so hard to take when the image comes tumbling down
But God gives you grace when you're put in your place
Down on your face on the ground
[Chorus]
So I'm being myself in Jesus
And He's being Himself in me
I'm being myself in Jesus
And that's the way to be
I'm being myself in Jesus
And He's being Himself in me
And the life that He gives is the life that I live
And I'm living it naturally
[Verse 4]
If I should say what I really feel well would you laugh at me?
And if I should show my weaknesses would you walk all over me?
And if you should find the real me, well tell me would you turn me down?
Please tell me to keep my confidence growing
In this family love I've found
[Chorus]
So I'm being myself in Jesus
And He's being Himself in me
I'm being myself in Jesus
And that's the way to be
I'm being myself in Jesus
And He's being Himself in me
And the life that He gives is the life that I live
And I'm living it naturally
