In this time,
I know I need to be more broken,
Then I find,
I feel this passion grow,
To face all that's been lost,
It's not to late to give control now,
I don't know why I wait,
You're always calling me
[CHORUS]
Tonight,
I will take my cross,
Tonight,
I will count this cost,
Tonight I realize to take hold of this very moment
In this time,
You draw me by these words you've spoken,
I feel inside,
This never ending hope,
I've placed all that I trust in knowing one day I will see you,
The only thing worth holding onto is holding onto me
I will take this moment
And I feel that it's closer
And I kneel to show you this desperate heart of mine
