Album: Soul Embrace
Lord, I want to be
A servant of the King
And I want my life
To be inspired by all you bring
But for this I must die
But sometimes it's hard
To understand the reasons why
Isn't there some way
I can save a piece of me?
Isn't there some how
You can take this cup from me?
Lord, I hear You whispering
That this is how it has to be
But, my God, it's awfully hard
To say goodbye to me
Hold me close
As I say goodbye to me
Let my heart know
That You are all I need
I'll stay right here on my knees
Until I have the strength
To say goodbye to me
'Cause I'm tired
Of living somewhere in between
Yeah, my love for You
And my love for me
So take whatever's left of me
I sacrifice it, Lord, to Thee
Goodbye to me, yeah
Help me cast down
Every idol that I've built
Lord, and lay them all
Where Calvary's blood was spilt
There where You sacrificed
Yourself for me
And now it's my turn, Lord
To die for Thee
Hold me close
As I say goodbye to me
Let my heart know
That You are all I need
I'll stay right here on my knees
Until I have the strength
To say goodbye to me
Yeah, Lord
Yeah, 'cause, Lord, I'm tired
Of living somewhere in between
Yeah, Lord, my love for You
And my love for me
So take whatever's left of me
I sacrifice it, Lord, to Thee
Goodbye to me, yeah, yeah
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye to me
