Your life
Your life
Your life
In mine
Your thoughts
Your ways
Your mystery
Too deep for words
My spirit burns to worship You
Your life
Your life
Your life
In mine!
Your heart
Your plans
Your will for me
There's nothing else my soul desires
Than more of You
Your life
Your life
Your life
In mine!
Take my heart, take my soul
Take my mind and I will
Give my thoughts, give my all
Give my life to follow You
Take my hands, take my breath
Take my dreams and I will
Lift my eyes, lift my faith
Lift my voice and worship You
Take my heart, take my soul
Take my mind and I will
Give my thoughts, give my all
Give my life to follow You
Take my hands, take my breath
Take my dreams and I will
Lift my eyes, lift my faith
Lift my voice and worship You
My God, my closest friend
I need Your love more than my lungs
Need oxygen
Take my heart, take my soul
Take my mind and I will
Give my thoughts, give my all
Give my life to follow You
Take my hands, take my breath
Take my dreams and I will
Lift my eyes, lift my faith
Lift my voice and worship You
