VERSE 1:

I don?t have the mind

To understand  

The weight of Your glory

Or what it takes to author  

The origin of light 

Or the mystery of life

Or the heart just to love me

But this much I know


CHORUS:

Everything I have 

Is because You died for me 

And nothing in this world

Could ever take that much from me


VERSE 2:

I don?t have the heart 

To measure up against 

All the pressure 

But all my strength exists 

In the confidence I find 

In the thrill of Your desire

And the power of Your presence 

So my soul will sing 


POST-CHORUS 1: 

Everything else comes down to this

I know Your love is why my soul exists

Nothing on earth compares

To the confidence I find 

In the thrill of Your desire 

And the power of Your presence

So my soul will sing


POST-CHORUS 2:

And I 

I know what love is

Oh the wonder of the blood 

Oh the kindness of Your heart

To save my soul 


And I 

I know You set me free

And it wrecks me to the bone

You died that I should know

You love me so
