If I could give my life for something,
it would be for the glory of God,
how he has taken my sorrows and buried them in joy,
his love for me is without end,


When I gaze at sadness,
the image of his sacrifice I see in the distance,
my burdens no longer seem relevant,
as I watch his blood drip,
and I hear his painful cries,
my pulse races in my veins,
I wonder why he has considered me worthy,
to give up all for me,


Today I will think differently,
my mind shall be focussed on him,
the world is only a staircase,
but heaven is the doorway to my salvation,
he waits for me there,
he longs to see me,
he longs to hear my voice in hymns,
my God,
thank you,
thank you so much,
your love makes me rise again....
