my relationship with god in a nut shell

this song for me basicly encapsulates my whole relationship with god, from oh no ive done it again to a i choose to do this instead of this................ great lyrics enjoy.......




i am i the only one to blame for this
somehow it all ends up the same.
soaring on the wings of selfish pride i flew too high
and like icharus i collide...


with a world i try so hard to leave behind
to rid myself of all but love
to give and die.


to turn away and not become
another nail to peirce the skin of one who loves
more deeply than the oceans more abundant than the tears,
of a world embracing every heartache.

can i be the one to sacrifice?
or grip the spear and watch th blood and water flow.

chorus

to love you - take my world apart
to need you - i am on my knees.

to love you - take my world apart
to need you - broken on my knees.

verse

all and said i stand alone
amongst remains of a life i should not own.
it takes all i am to believe
in the mercy that covers me.

did you really have to die for me

all i am for all you are
because what i need and what i believe are worlds apart.

chorus

to love you - take my world apart

to need you - i am on my knees.

to love you -

take my world apart

to need you - broken on my knees.

i look beyond the empty cross
forgeting what my life has cost
wipe away the crimson stains
till only nails that still remains
more and more i need you now
i owe you more each passing hour
a battle between grace and pride
i gave up not so long ago
so steal my heart and take the pain
you wash my feet and cleanse my pride
take the selfish take the weak
and all the things i cannot hide
take the beauty take my tears
my sin an so in part make it yours
take my world all apart take it lord
oh take it now
and serve the ones that i dispise
speak the words i cant deny
and watch the world i used to love fall to dust and blow away
i look beyond the empty cross
forgeting what my life has cost
you wipe away the crimson stains
and all the nails that still remain
so steal my heart and take the painyou wash my feet and cleanse my pridetake the selfish take the weakand all the things i cannot hidetake the beauty take my tears
take my world apart
take my world apart
i pray
take my world apart.
