You gave Your life for mine
Nailed to the cross you crucified
All my sin and shame
It was washed by Your mercy
You are the treasure I find
My reason for living so let my life
Become an offering
To the One who is worthy
All praise to the Lord most high
All praise to the One who saved my life
All praise to Jesus Christ
High King of Heaven my King forever
You stormed the gates of my heart
The veil in between was torn apart
Now You hold the keys to the grave
Cause You bring things to life
You roll stones away
All praise to the Lord most high
All praise to the One who saved my life
All praise to Jesus Christ
High King of Heaven my King forever
All praise to the Lord most high
All praise to the One who saved my life
All praise to Jesus Christ
High King of Heaven my King forever
I lift my hands up lay my whole life down
My whole life down before You
I lift my hands up lay my whole life down
My whole life now is for You
I lift my hands up lay my whole life down
My whole life down before You
I lift my hands up lay my whole life down
My whole life now is for You
I lift my hands up lay my whole life down
My whole life down before You
I lift my hands up lay my whole life down
My whole life now is for You
All praise to the Lord most high
All praise to the One who saved my life
All praise to Jesus Christ
High King of Heaven my King forever
All praise to the Lord most high
All praise to the One who saved my life
All praise to Jesus Christ
High King of Heaven my King forever
I lift my hands up lay my whole life down
My whole life down before You
I lift my hands up lay my whole life down
My whole life now is for You
All praise to the Lord most high
All praise to the One who saved my life
All praise to Jesus Christ
High King of Heaven my King forever
My King forever
