For The King
by Allison Eide

Album: IDK

Verse 1
Oh never have I ever felt this much dirt in my face
Oh never have I ever heard this laughter from the grave
Oh never have I ever bled out all my fight like this
And yet the One I serve has never left me, for dead

Chorus
Cut me and break my bones but you will never touch my soul
Go ahead, bury me down with the mustard seed (Seed!)
Knock my knees to the ground
Right where I can pick back up my crown
I'm for the King and the King's for me

Instrumental Break
Ooh, yeah the King's for—

Verse 2
Me when I struggle just to picture what the light looks like
When I'm at war with hidden habits haunting me at night
But no better place to be than at my weakest on my knees
When I remember who I am and whose I am and that He's called me

Chorus
Cut me and break my bones but you will never touch my soul
Go ahead, bury me down with the mustard seed (Seed!)
Knock my knees to the ground
Right where I can pick back up my crown
I'm for the King and the King's for me

Instrumental Break
(Oh, ooh, ooh yeah, Lord ah, yeah)
And the King's for—
Instrumental Break

Bridge
I know the One who's fighting for me
So who could ever stand against me?
I know the One who's fighting for me
So try, try, try

Chorus
Cut me and break my bones but you will never touch my soul
Go ahead, bury me down with the mustard seed (Seed!)
Forget who I used to be
Now I'm locked in on Him who lives in me
Ohh!
I'm for the King and the King's for me

Instrumental Break
(Oh, ooh, ooh yeah, Lord ah, yeah)

(Da da da da-da da, da da-da da, d' daa daa)
