The reason why I stand The answer lies in you You hung to make me strong Though my praise was few When I fall I bring your name down But I have found in you A heart that bleeds forgiveness replacing all these thoughts of painful memories But I know that your response will always be
I'll take you back always Even when your fight is over now (x2) I'll take you back always and Even when the pain is coming through (x2) I'll take you back
You satisfy this cry Of what I'm looking for And I'll take all I can And lay it down before The throne of endless grace now that radiates what's true I'm in the only place that erases all these faults That have overtaken me But I know that your response will always be
I'll take you back always and Even when your fight is over now(x2) I'll take you back always Even when the pain is coming through(x2) I'll take you back
I can only speak with a grateful heart As I'm pierced by this gift of your love I will always bring an offering I can never thank you enough
You take me back always Even when my fight is over now (x2) You take me back always Even when my pain is coming through(x2) You take me back (repeat)
You know and you see, the times of my defeat When I fail to realize your kindness Reaches through all my fragile fears of wasting any years I see you go beyond my silent feelings
Even when I wrote my life away You still receive me Even when I wrote my life away You still receive me
You took this fading heart and softened every part I'll rest in light of what you've promised to me
I'll always stay strong cos I feel you Holding on now to you I belong And I know And you heal me...
Every single word I say You know it before I speak You know every thought The deepest part of me
You draw me close and then I see Your presence is every thing I need to be The child that you've created me to be Ready now to see it your way
CHORUS Lay down my pride My desires my demise Ready now to see it your way 'cause I'm done I'm through ignoring you now it's true I'm kneeling at the cross of your grace Lay down my pride
I was faced with passing time But I knew the choice was mine To finally come to you And give you all control I've wandered miles to find my way And then you revealed this simple thing I know that you can see the secrets of my soul
CHORUS Lay down my pride My desires my demise Ready now to see it your way 'cause I'm done I'm through ignoring you now it's true I'm kneeling at the cross of your grace Lay down my pride (repeat)
The cross the blood you shed for me Your back was ripped and bruised So I can know your love I kneel I bow to you my king
CHORUS Lay down my pride My desires my demise Ready now to see it your way 'cause I'm done I'm through ignoring you now it's true I'm kneeling at the cross of your grace Lay down my pride (repeat)
You want to be real, you want to be empty inside You want to be someone laying down your pride You want to be someone someday Then lay it all down before the king
You want to be whole, you want to have purpose inside You want to have virtue and purify your mind
You want to be set free today Then lay it all down before the King
This is my desire, this is my return This is my desire to be used by You
You want to be real, you want to be emptied inside And I know my heart is to feel You near And I know my life It's to do Your will It's to do Your will
This is my desire, this is my return This is my desire, to be used by You Oh yea This is my desire, this is my desire To be used by You
All my life I have seen Where You've taken me Beyond all I have hoped And there's more left unseen
There's not much I can do to repay all You've done So I give my hands to use
This is my desire, this is my return This is my desire, to be used by You Oh yea This is my desire, this is my desire To be used by You
And all these dreams I've made I take them all and lay them down In light of reasons I have found now
And I can rest in knowing You will open every door Instead of forcing my own world now
I'd rather wait on you You'll be the one to call me out I have found that it's the only way You'll be the one to call me out I have found that it's the only way
I know that I have plans But you will take me Every step you have covered all my debt now
And I have realized these empty fames That people crave are based on hopes of what they've made now I'd rather wait on you
There's more than what I'm feeling, well There's more than what I'm feeling
You fill my empty soul I'd give you all control You take this heart of mine And make the pieces whole You broke this fear inside I'll leave these cares behind You take this simple mold And sanctify my mind You formed me before I was known I was made your own now
Breathe in me Breathe the breath of life It's more than I can see Breathe in me Breathe the breath of life There's more than I can see
You took on everything to make me feel complete You answered every call You're never far from reach You lift me when I fall You break down every wall You feel my every need, I dedicate my all You took this failed attempt to stand And you carry me now
Breathe in me Breathe the breath of life It's more than I can see Breathe in me Breathe the breath of life There's more than I can see
I won't hesitate to call When I'm empty from within And I know the only source of life Are the very words you give You formed me before I was known And I was made your own now
Breathe in me Breathe the breath of life It's more than I can see Breathe in me Breathe the breath of life There's more than I can see
In only a moment truth was seen Revealed this mystery The crown that showed no dignity he wore And the king was placed for all the world to show disgrace But only beauty flowed from this place
Would you take the place of this man Would you take the nails from his hands Would you take the place of this man Would you take the nails from his hands
He held the weight of impurity The Father would not see The reasons had finally come to be to show The depth of His grace flowed with every sin erased He knew that this was why he came
Would you take the place of this man Would you take the nails from his hands Would you take the place of this man Would you take the nails from his hands
And we just don't know The blood and water flowed And in it all He shows Just how much He cares
And the veil was torn So we could have this open door And all these things have finally been complete
Would you take the place of this man Would you take the nails from his hands Would you take the place of this man Would you take the nails from his hands, from his hands, from his hands, from his hands
Innocence is calling The way it's always been I can feel my heart is reaching I can see the calling to show your heart within Cos I know your blood is healing All I am today And all I am is what your hands have made me Here my soul is yielding
As I fall down I give all these weak hands have forsaken As I fall down before you I know I've been broken
Lord I feel drawing my heart into your love I can hear your voice is pleading I can see you molding the shape of purity I am what you've laid before me Here my soul is yielding
As I fall down I give all these weak hands have forsaken As I fall down before you I know I've been broken
As I fall down before the one Whose hand has reached me out of this fear and doubt That's stolen All man's hope of knowing you As I fall down I give all these weak hands have forsaken As I fall down before you I know I've been broken
When I think of all I've seen Nothing compares to what you give And to drink of what you bring You quench the thirst for me to live I am satisfied by what tenderness you've shown to me And I empty all that I am
And you fill my life You're everything to me There's nothing else I need anymore And I know you are everything to me And there's nothing else I need anymore
I have tasted And I know this fire birthed inside will only grow And I've sought all that this world tried to offer me And it lead me to your feet And I empty all that I am
And you fill my life You're everything to me There's nothing else I need anymore And I know you are everything to me And there's nothing else I need anymore
I will lay down all my needs and you will come and make them new To make you my only desire, my desire And you fill my life You're everything to me
And you fill my life You're everything to me There's nothing else I need anymore And I know you are everything to me And there's nothing else I need anymore
