BRIDGE:
Not because of who I am,
But because of what you’ve done
Not because of what I’ve done
But because of who you are
CHORUS:
I am a flower quickly fading,
Here today and gone tomorrow,
A wave tossed in the ocean,
A vapor in the wind.
Still you hear me when I’m calling,
Lord, you catch me when I’m falling,
And you’ve told me who I am.
I am yours. I am yours.
Who am I?
That the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
And watch me rise again.
Who am I?
That the voice that calmed the sea,
Would call out through the rain,
And calm the storm in me.
Bridge, Chorus, Bridge, Chorus
CHORUS:
What’s going on inside of me?
I despise my own behavior
This only serves to confirm my suspicions
That I’m still a man in need of a Savior
I wanna be in the light as you are in the Light
I wanna shine like the stars in the heavens
Oh, Lord be my Light and be my Salvation
All I want is to be in the Light
All I want is to be in the Light
The disease of self runs through my blood
It’s a cancer fatal to my soul
Every attempt on my behalf has failed
To bring this sickness under control
CHORUS 2x
CHORUS:
To see You high and lifted up
Shining in the light of Your glory
Pour out Your power and love
As we sing holy, holy, holy
REPEAT CHORUS, VERSE, CHORUS 2x
You are holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy, I want to see You
CHORUS
Life is precious, life is sweet
Like the earth beneath my feet
Though I know I’m passing through
I know I belong to You
Life is precious, life is sweet
And this truth makes me complete
Knowing Jesus died for me
Life is precious
Life is precious, life is sweet
I can’t see past myself
When I get depressed
I take for granted
This life You’ve given me
There are a million ways
I’ve been so richly blessed
I can’t imagine
Not being able to see
REPEAT CHORUS
And this life I live in the body
I live by faith in the One who gave Himself for me
Life is precious, Life is precious
REPEAT CHORUS
If your diary isn’t what it should be
You’d better rearrange the plot
‘Cause in the twinkling of an eye
There’ll be Jesus in the sky – Ready or not
The time is come to change from cold to hot
By the time you see Him there
You’ll be flying through the air – Ready or not
So if you’re waiting for just the right occasion
You’d better give the final shot
You got no time left to lose
Turn to God or sing the blues – Ready or not
If you’re not living like you should be living
You’d better give it all that you’ve got
‘Cause by the time you see His face
You’ll be on your way to space – Ready or not
The time has come to change from cold to hot
In the twinkling of an eye
There’ll be Jesus in the sky
Ready or not (5x)
By the time you see Him there
You’ll be with Him in the air
Ready or not (9x)
Take my life and let it be
consecrated, Lord, to Thee
Take my hands and let them move
At the impulse of Thy love,
at the impulse of Thy love
REFRAIN
Take my lips and let them be
filled with messages from Thee
Take my silver and my gold,
not a mite would I withhold
Not a mite would I withhold
REFRAIN 2x
BRIDGE
Take my mind! Take my will!
Take my hands to serve you still!
Take my feet where e’er I go from here
My thoughts laid bare to test and steer
My heart, to love and fear….
Take my love, my God, I pour
at Thy feet its treasure store
Take myself and I will be ever, only, all for Thee
Ever, only, all for…ever, only, all for…
Ever only all for Thee!
BRIDGE, REFRAIN 2x
Riches I heed not, nor vain, empty praise
Thou mine inheritance, now and always
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart
Great God of heaven, my treasure Thou art
Be Thou my wisdom, and Thou my true word
I ever with Thee, and Thou with me, Lord
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall
Still be my vision, O Ruler of all
Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best thought, by day or by night
GIRLS: Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light
BOYS: Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light
GIRLS: Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light
CHORUS:
The wise will hear Him and obey His word
Long and blessed will be their days upon the earth
The fool will perish in the folly of his ways
Do you tremble at the Word of God?
Have you considered the scope of eternity
In the light of unwavering truth
Have you regarded the works of His strong and mighty hands
Do you tremble at the Word of God?
REPEAT CHORUS
Jesus, be the center,
be my source, be my light, Jesus
Jesus, be the center,
be my hope, be my song, Jesus
CHORUS
Be the fire in my heart, be the wind in these sails
Be the reason that I live, Jesus, Jesus
Jesus, be my vision
be my path, be my guide, Jesus
CHORUS 2x
Jesus, be the center
be my source, be my light, Jesus
Be my source, be my light, Jesus
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
And I will praise You, Lord
I will praise You, Lord
And I will sing of love come down
I will sing of love come down
And as Your show Your face
Show Your face
We’ll see Your glory here
REPEAT FROM BEGINNING
We’ll see Your glory here
We’ll see Your glory here
