Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Here I bring my stains and crowns
Gentle river wash me now
Your love is deeper than I know
Your ways higher than I can go
Lead me in Your holiness
I will follow, I confess
Glory is the song I sing
Your life is living me
And where would I be
Without You, without You?
Where would I be
Without You?
I will bow before the cross
Cherish my Redeemer's cost
There is nothing I can do
But only stand amazed by You
Mercy new with every day
Wrapped up in Your arms of grace
Nothing more, You're all I need
Your life is living me
Like a waterfall
You fill my heart and overflow
Like a candle flame
You light my way
And lead me as I go
Spirit overflow
Let me overflow
