Lyrics

For me to live is Christ to die is gain
But in truth I have it backwards most of the time
I'm chasing shadows grasping for the wind
Caught in the web of lies where gain is life a bitter sin.
But deep down I know the truth
That all we have is right now
This fleeting breath this fragile life
Help me see through the shroud.
Help me pick up this cross and follow You
Through the valley of shadows where my faith is tried
I keep falling but Your grace pulls me through
In this brokenness Your love is my guide.
I keep falling into the trap time after time
This world keeps calling offering its empty prize
But I'm lost in the noise drowning in the pain
Lord break these chains let me feel alive again.
But deep down I know the truth
That all we have is right now
This fleeting breath this fragile life
Help me see through the shroud.
Help me pick up this cross and follow You
Through the valley of shadows where my faith is tried
I keep falling but Your grace pulls me through
In this brokenness Your love is my guide.
When the darkness surrounds and I'm lost in despair
Your light breaks through I know You're there
Teach me to surrender to let go of this fight
To live is Christ to die is gain in Your holy light.
Let Your mercy rain down wash over my soul
In the silence I hear You calling me home
In the stillness I find my peace
In Your arms I know I'm finally free.
Help me pick up this cross and follow You
Through the valley of shadows where my faith is tried
I keep falling but Your grace pulls me through
In this brokenness Your love is my guide.
For me to live is Christ to die is gain
But in Your love I find my life again.
