[Michael Tait:]
Ohhhh, ohhhh
[Michael Tait, Peter Furler:]
Can you hear it resonating
Staring deep within your soul
Can you feel it, like a rhythm
And you've got to let it go
[Michael Tait, Michael Tait & Peter Furler:]
What good are the drums if they can't be played?
What good is a heart kept within a cage?
You gave me a voice and a freedom
A joy that I don't wanna waste, don't wanna waste
[Michael Tait & Peter Furler:]
So let my life be
Let my life be a symphony, a symphony
Every breath that I breathe
Lord I wanna bring You glory, glory
[Michael Tait & Peter Furler:]
When the nations come together
See revivals breaking out
Hallelujahs like thunder
All Your people singing out
[Michael Tait & Peter Furler:]
What good is a song if it can't be sung?
We're lifting our lives to the risen one
All of creation and heaven can never sing loud enough
Loud enough
[Michael Tait & Peter Furler, Michael Tait, Peter Furler:]
So let my life be
Let my life be a symphony, a symphony
Every breath that I breathe
Lord I wanna bring You glory, glory
All for Your name (All for Your name)
All for Your grace (All for Your grace)
All that I am ringing out like a melody
So let my life be
Let my life be a symphony, a symphony
For You
Ohhhh, ohhhh
A symphony, a symphony
[Michael Tait:]
This song is echoing all through the ages
This is forever the anthem we raise
It's always been for Your glory, Jesus
Holy is Your name
[Peter Furler:]
What good are the drums if they can't be played?
What good is a heart kept within a cage?
[Michael Tait & Peter Furler, Michael Tait, Peter Furler:]
So let my life be
Let my life be a symphony, a symphony
Every breath that I breathe
Lord I wanna bring You glory, glory
All for Your name (All for Your name)
All for Your grace (All for Your grace)
All that I am ringing out like a melody
So let my life be
Let my life be a symphony, a symphony
For You
Ohhhh, ohhhh
A symphony, a symphony
Ohhhh, ohhhh
A symphony, a symphony
[Michael Tate:]
Let my life be
Let my life be a symphony, a symphony
For You
