I trust in you for life to live, and air to breath
Purity fills my lungs
I trust in you for life to live, and air to breath
Purity fills my lungs

I no longer live in solitude
No longer bound
My heart beats with great devotion
This is the start to a new beginning
I no longer live in solitude
No longer bound
My heart beats with great devotion
This is the start to a new beginning

On my knees praying for mercy
Hands raised high, humble and broken
Wanting your grace
Wanting your security
Memories of laying facedown,
Motionless, with such a hollow feeling inside
Soon I would end this life I was living

I am just a man with a heart and sinful hands
I am a fallen victim
I am just a man with a heart and sinful hands
I am a fallen victim
(I am just a man with a heart and sinful hands
I am a fallen victim)
(I am just a man with a heart and sinful hands
I am a fallen victim)

Lord, show me the way
Let my words be your words
Let my thoughts be your thoughts
Let my words be your words
Lord, show me the way
I ask of you Father
To you, I give my praise
To you, I give my praise
To you, I give my praise

Show me the way
Take me in your arms
Never let me go

Lord, show me the way, as I give myself to you
Never let me go
Hold me with your everlasting love
Be my strength
Be my voice
Be my glory
Set me free

    This would show my parents that this band is actually Christian Metal.

    Such a powerful song. You can just feel God's love. And know that no matter what you've done wrong in your life, the good Lord will set you free and give you all the love that he can give.

    I just noticed the part that starts at about 2:40 or so sounds a lot like Separation by As I Lay Dying, or at least very similar. Awesome song, I just got the album a week ago and loved it.
