ha'shir shel mi

there are days when the world seems to fall apart
when we lose sight of christ though he holds our hearts
and our sin takes hold and we fall so hard
and though we repent we listen to our hearts as they tell us "you've fallen too far"

but we were never any better in and of ourselves
we were always fallen blind and hopeless lost and dead
but you came and you sought and you saved our souls
and your love draws us near when we've run so far
so we come to you now falling on our knees
so forgive us
and thank you lord

Lord I want to be here swimming in your sea
in your pleasure so deep that my heart is free
and I know your arms are my deepest rest
and in you I hide when my fears overwhelm and I doubt if your love covers me

but we were never any stronger in and of ourselves
we were always fallen blind and helpless lost and dead
but you came and you sought and you saved our souls
and your love draws us near when we've run so far
so we come to you now falling on our knees
so forgive us
and thank you lord
