Born To Die
by Emerald

Album: Demos 1984

He was born of a virgin, was a carpenter's son
Lived His life a perfect way, immortal soul had been won.
Spoke of life beyond the grave, in the realm of the Lord.
Take my hand and follow me, eternal life will be yours.

Born to die so we might live.
He never did nothing,
All He did was give
Born to die so we might live,
All he did was give.

He came here of a master plan, He was born of the rock.
Everyone used to laugh at Him, criticize and mock.
Punishment, misery and pain - Such a tragic loss.
There He'd stay,
For our sins He'd pay,
Crucified on the cross.

Born to die so we might live
He never did nothing.
All He did was give
Born to die so we might live
All He did was give
He gave to us
Crucified on the cross
He gave to us.

Day to day we're here to chip
At the biggest block.
It's a test; can't you see
We're timed by the hands on the clock?
You can run, you can crawl,
You can fall or you can walk
Through the door in His heart you go...
You don't have to knock.

Born to die so we might live
He never did nothing,
All He did was give
Born to die so we might live.
All He did was give.

LEAD BRIDGE
We were born to die...
And He died for us…
CRUCIFIED ON THE CROSS…
CRUCIFIED ON THE CROSS…
