Scenes of you come rushing through You are breaking me down So break me into pieces That will grow in the ground I know that I deserve to die For the murder in my heart So be gentle with me Jesus As you tear me apart Please kill the liar Kill the thief in me You know that I am tired of their cruelty Breathe into my spirit Breathe into my veins Until only love remains
You burn away the ropes that bind And hold me to the earth The fire only leaves behind whatever is of worth I begin to see reality For the first time in my life I know that I’m a shadow But I’m dancing in your light
Teach me to be humble Call me from the grave Show me how to walk with you upon the waves Breathe into my spirit Breathe into my veins Until only love remains
I don’t know what to say No words could ever be enough I stand up because you hold me here Because you brought me here tonight
Without you we all fall down Without you we all fall You make life worth living You make me want to start giving More and more away to you It’s not mine anyway
I could not ever try so hard I could buy a place in your heart But here I am My name written on your hands Because you paid the debt I owe
Without you we all fall down Without you we all fall
You make life worth living You make me want to start giving More and more away to you It’s not mine anyway
Are you the little girl who locks herself inside her room Waiting to be rescued Or are you the captain of war That he began to prove his merit as a man
Everyone is known for something What’s it going to be for you Are you the picture of perfection But when it comes down to it you don’t have a clue Or are you the center of attention at all times God help the man who takes away your chance to shine
Everyone is known for something What’s it going to be for you No one else can paint your portrait With an unobstructed view
You’re the one who gets to choose How much of you you’ve got to lose How much of you you’ve yet to gain Who are you
HE CRIES IN THE CORNER WHERE NOBODY SEES HE’S THE KID WITH THE STORY NO ONE WOULD BELIEVE HE PRAYS EVERY NIGHT, “DEAR GOD WON’T YOU PLEASE COULD YOU SEND SOMEONE HERE WHO WILL LOVE ME?” WHO WILL LOVE ME FOR ME, NOT FOR WHAT I HAVE DONE OR WHAT I WILL BECOME WHO WILL LOVE ME FOR ME, CAUSE NOBODY HAS SHOWN ME WHAT LOVE WHAT LOVE REALLY MEANS, WHAT LOVE REALLY MEANS
HER OFFICE IS SHRINKING A LITTLE EACH DAY SHE’S THE WOMAN WHOSE HUSBAND HAS RUN AWAY SHE’LL GO TO THE GYM AFTER WORKING TODAY MAYBE IF SHE WAS THINNER THEN HE WOULD’VE STAYED, AND SHE SAYS
HE’S WAITING TO DIE AS HE SITS ALL ALONE HE’S A MAN IN A CELL WHO REGRETS WHAT HE’S DONE HE UTTERS A CRY FROM THE DEPTHS OF HIS SOUL “OH LORD, FORGIVE ME, I WANT TO GO HOME”
THEN HE HEARD A VOICE SOMEWHERE DEEP INSIDE AND IT SAID “I KNOW YOU’VE MURDERED AND I KNOW YOU’VE LIED I HAVE WATCHED YOU SUFFER ALL OF YOUR LIFE AND NOW THAT YOU’LL LISTEN, I’LL TELL YOU THAT I…”
I WILL LOVE YOU FOR YOU, NOT FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE OR WHAT YOU WILL BECOME I WILL LOVE YOU FOR YOU, I WILL GIVE YOU THE LOVE THE LOVE THAT YOU NEVER KNEW
I have unanswered prayers I have trouble I wish wasn’t there And I have asked a thousand ways That you would take my pain away You would take my pain away I am trying to understand How to walk this weary land Make straight the paths that crooked lie Oh Lord, before these feet of mine Oh Lord, before these feet of mine
When my world is shaking, heaven stands When my heart is breaking I never leave your hands
When you walked upon the earth You healed the broken, lost and hurt I know you hate to see me cry One day you will set all things right Yeah, one day you will set all things right
When my world is shaking, heaven stands When my heart is breaking I never leave your hands
