Emotionally I am drained…Physically I am spent…
My throat is dried…When my flesh has died…
Upon the cross you were killed…we are to die to ourselves…
Stretch me Lord…in areas I am afraid to let others into…
Teach me who I am…on the inside…
Not letting pride get in my way…may I put my hope in you today

I don’t like stepping out of my comfort zone…as I come humbly before your throne…
Teach me what it’s like…to step into the real world…As I am really excited to go…
I am so scared…people will find out…who is underneath this pride…
Under the mask I try to hide behind…when people ask who I am on the inside…
Oh Lord please help me remember that my flesh today has died…

Daily I need to take up my cross…and give you my all…
This is the way to follow you…I lay before you offering you my all…
Everything that hurts, when I feel alone in the dirt…God will sustain me as I come…
Don’t know why…you loved me so much to die…but I can’t believe I am yours…
I love you…no one else will take your place…no one else fills this void…
Others may get annoyed…Others may get angry…may get upset…

I don’t know this love so great…Greater love I have never known…
How is this love…so real to me…so powerful to set me free…
I am scared of where I would…be if you had not captured me…
Don’t stop now…this life is just beginning…Eternally living starts now…
The moment I accept the invitation…let you come in…I love you Lord now…

Bring me to BAR…Burial of my flesh…help resurrect my spirit… I ask you now…
You have made me who I am…You have been my closest friend…when you have stripped everything away…I open up my eyes and I see you cry…Your son to die because of all my sin…
