If this is what you have for me,
I'll take it and I'll run.
But I won't let go till you've blessed me, Lord,
And left my soul undone.
If I have to fight you,
And struggle until morn,
It's nothing to me- I'll do it
Until I am reborn.
If this is what you have for me,
I couldn't ask for more.
But I ask a valid question:
What, exactly, is in store?
Will I have to fight the angel
Until I'm blessed at last?
I'll show how much I want it;
My bitterness is past.
It's all I am pursuing,
Though I do not know the way.
I have no power over you,
No idea what you will say.
But if this is what you have for me,
If this here will fulfill
What you have to bless my every breath,
I'll fight for it: I will.
