i wont type in the lyrics anymore, just straight to interpretation
here goes:
(asking God) not to see me as a simple person just thinking about worldly things.
recognize me as someone reaching out for (You/God)
take charge of my destiny, walk me through it and show me the way to tomorrow. sometimes the best plans are the spur of the moment opportunities.
destiny may have set you on a certain course but may just as suddenly take back that course in your life and change it. so weap... take it all in, (move on)
(asking God) rhetorical question why youth is wasted on the young (referencing immaturity, ignorance, lack of experience and learning)
when the time comes people scramble to find meaning in their lives questioning their disposition/situation. looking for hope feeling anonymous trying to do something good regardless of significance.
realizing we are just this little spec in the grand universe. if we wallow too much in fear and sorrow we might end up living our lives in the same.
do not ruin the best of the past with the bad moments of life. there is always hope, sometimes you see a miracle, there are no set rules to life, move on and forge a new path perhaps we'd overcome the troubles and succeed to be triumphant.
getting Gods attention. hearing our cries and desires. just the same we are still innocent/ignorant/never fully matured.
We are all just like stars(one of too many/almost insignificant) trying to make our mark in this world and beyond.
