Story Behind the Song
This song is nominally an epiphany song. I wrote it so I could dedicate it as gift for a friend for Christmas.
It centers on the idea that how we live Christ in our lives can point the way to him for others; and offers thanks for God's faithfulness.
Lyrics
You created me, to be a child for you;
To know you and to love you and to serve you.
And as Ive grown in faith I have found the peace you promised,
and I know that youll be always at my side.
So like the star in the east, my life will shine with your glory,
and light the path that leads the way to you.
Like the heralds of old, my song will tell your story,
That in knowing me, others will know you.
Many times Ive wandered, so far away from you
Ive hidden from your love a million times.
Yet you always call me back, with a voice thats full of laughter
And you crown me with your joy and peace and love
So I sing a song of love, of thanks, of adoration
For all the blessings you pour out in me
Your grace and love surround me, and I live and breathe in you
Live in me, my Savior and my King.
