It's always Your kindness, Lord
It's always Your kindness, Lord
That leads to repentance
And the healing I've witnessed
It's always Your kindness, Lord
It's only Your mercy, Lord
It's only Your mercy, Lord
You know where I've wandered
But You run like a Father
It's only Your mercy, Lord
And I will give You the weight of my worship
You can have what's dearest to me
Here I break open my heart
Like an alabaster jar
My life is an offering
It's only Your power, Lord
It's only Your power, Lord
One touch of your garment
I'm changed in a moment
It's only Your power, Lord
And I will give You the weight of my worship
You can have what's dearest to me
Here I break open my heart
Like an alabaster jar
My life is an offering
It's only Your victory
Jesus, Your victory
Heaven's wide open
Through Your body broken
It's only Your victory
You laid down Your life
So I'm lifting mine
This is my offering
And I will give You the weight of my worship
You can have what's dearest to me
Here I break open my heart
Like an alabaster jar
My life is an offering
And I will give You the weight of my worship
You can have what's dearest to me
Here I break open my heart
Like an alabaster jar
My life is an offering
To You, my life is an offering
To You, my life is an offering
