Michael Card I Have Decided lyrics

I have decided
I'm going to live like a believer
Turn my back on the deceiver
Going to live what I believe
I have decided
Being good is just a fable
I just can't 'cause I'm not able
Going to leave it to the Lord

There's a wealth of things that I professed
And said that I believed
But deep inside I never changed
I guess I've been deceived
And a voice inside kept telling me
That I changed by and by
But the spirit made it clear to me
That kind of life's a lie

I have decided
I'm going to live like a believer
Turn my back on the deceiver
Going to live what I believe
I have decided
Being good is just a fable
I just can't 'cause I'm not able
Going to leave it to the Lord

So forget the game of being good
And your self-righteous pain
'Cause the only good inside your heart
Is the good that Jesus brings
When the world begins to see you change
Don't expect them to applaud
Just keep your eyes on him and tell yourself
I've become the work of God

I have decided
I'm going to live like a believer
Turn my back on the deceiver
Going to live what I believe
I have decided

Being good is just a fable
I just can't 'cause I'm not able
Going to leave it to the Lord

I have decided
I'm going to live like a believer
Turn my back on the deceiver
Going to live what I believe
I have decided
Being good is just a fable
I just can't 'cause I'm not able
Going to leave it to the Lord

I have decided
I'm going to live like a believer
Turn my back on the deceiver
Going to live what I believe
I have decided
Being good is just a fable
I just can't 'cause I'm not able
Going to leave it to the Lord

I have decided
I'm going to live like a believer
Turn my back on the deceiver
Going to live what I believe
I have decided
Being good is just a fable
I just can't 'cause I'm not able
Going to leave it to the Lord

I have decided
I'm going to live like a believer
Turn my back on the deceiver
Going to live what I believe
I have decided
Being good is just a fable
