VERSE 1   I know I've spent my whole life running from you   Even though there's been some things you needed me to do    I did it my way and hurt you over and over again   But you were preparing me   To carry out your plan   Though you said that you'd walk with me, some won't believe   Cause the messenger you chose sings R&B   So the man that you rescued me from is the man that they still    And I don't know what to say   I need you to speak for me      CHORUS   So Lord, this is my prayer   Your “work in progress” humbly asks of thee   Once your promise is fulfilled, the world will be watching anxiously   Lord help someone to see, the YOU in ME   Lord help just one to see, the YOU in ME      VERSE 2   Someone listening right now needs to hear this tonight   Cause you're lonely and there's an emptiness you're trying to fill in your life   Well I guarantee that my God can do it, yes He can   His name is JESUS   You've got to let him in, and say      CHORUS   Lord, this is my prayer   Your “work in progress” humbly asks of thee (of thee, of thee)   When your promise has been fulfilled   And the whole world is watching anxiously   Lord help someone to see, the YOU in ME (Oh Lord)   Just help one to see, the YOU in ME (Please Jesus)   If only one could see, the YOU in ME      BISHOP EDDIE L. LONG   I want to speak to you right now   In the midst of your struggles, in the midst of your pain, in the midst of your    confusion   You wonder, “why am I here?” Glad you asked that questions   God said, You're set apart for a special work, for His glory   That others will see you, but not see you and see HIM   Oh you need to hear this; you need to hear this because   You've been listening to the wrong people   He ordained you, and you don't need anyone else's approval   You've come fully equipped to do what God ordained you to do   You existed with God, even before you were formed in your mother's womb   God knew you   It is amazing   You've tried everybody and everything   Jesus says, “stop fighting God” stop fighting   He's knocking at your heart, saying, “let me in”   You're so special   Let the glory of the Lord come through you, in the midst of all your confusion   He loves you      REPEAT CHORUS/ADLIB/END      Lord, Lord my, my, my, my prayer   I'm just a work in progress, but   I'm asking you, I'm begging you…   When you're promise has been fulfilled, and the world is watching anxiously   Come on and help someone, Oh Lord   I don't want nobody to see Montell, if they can't see you   I'm talking to somebody, can I get a witness   You gotta see past the man, in order to see the You in me
