Lay Down My Life

Lay Down My Life

All your pain
Will be made mine
All your troubles
The tears you cry

Give it up
All that binds
I will place it on my shoulders
And up this hill I’ll climb

Father, give me strength
I know there is no other way

CHORUS
I lay down my life for you
This is the moment when all will be made new
I know that you don’t understand
But this is part of a greater plan
So I lay down my life for you

This is love
That had to bleed
To bring you mercy
To set you free

You are mine
I am yours
And I will wear your burdens
Just like this crown of thorns

I will take your place
I know there is no other way

CHORUS

Give me all your pride
Give me all your fears
Give me all your secrets
Give me all your tears

Give me all you doubt
Give me all your shame
Watch them wash away
Watch them wash away

Give me all your pride
Give me all your fears
Give me all your secrets
Give me all your tears

Give me all you doubt
Give me all your shame
Watch them wash away
In Jesus’ name

CHORUS

Though I know that you don’t understand
These scars are part of a greater plan
And I lay down my life for you

Arms stretched out
Upon this tree
To show true love
To set you free

I have been slipping away for a while and this morning I finally heard Him, "pray" was all I heard, but it was enough, and then I heard your music. I came to your site after hearing The Words I Would Say on the Message on XM in the car on the way home from taking my husband to work for the army chaplaincy. Yes, I am a preacher's wife, and even I still have fear and doubt sometimes. Thank you, Sidewalk Prophets, for letting God work through you to minister to me.
