[Chorus:]
DmIf this life has anything to gain at all
FI'll count it loss if I can't Chear you, feel you, 'cause I Bbneed you.
Can't walk this earth alonDme.
DmI recognize I'm not my own, Fso before I fall
C. Bb
I need to hear you, feel you, as I live to make my boast in you alone.
[Verse 1:]
DmWith every breath I take, with every heart beat,
FSunrise and the moon lights in the dark street.
CEvery glance, every dance, every note of a song.
BbIt's all a gift undeserved that I shouldn't have known.
DmEvery day that I lie, every moment I covet
FI'm deserving to die, I'm just earning your judgment.
CI, without the cross there's only condemnation.
BbIf Jesus wasn't executed there's no celebration.
DmSo in times that are good, in times that are bad
FFor any times that I've had it all I will be glad.
CAnd I will boast in the cross. I'll boast in my pains.
BbI will boast in the sunshine, boast in his reign.
DmWhat's my life if it's not praising you'
FAnother dollar in my bank account of vain pursuit.
CI do not count my life as any value or precious at all.
BbLet me finish my race, let me answer my call.
[Chorus]
[Verse 2:]
DmTomorrow's never promised, but it is we sweaFr.
FThink we holding our own, just a fist full oCf air.
CGod has never been obligated to give us lifBbe.
BbIf we fought for our rights, we'd be in hell tonight.
DmMere sinners owed nothing but a fierce haFnd.
FWe never loved him, we pushed away his pierceCd hands.
CI rejected his love, grace, kindness, and mercy.
BbDying of thirst, yet, willing to die thirsty.
DmEternally worthy, how could I live for less'
FPatiently you turned my heart away from selfishness.
CI volunteer for your sanctifying surgery.
BbI know the Spirit's purging me of everything that's hurting me.
DmRemove the veil from my darkened eyes.
FSo now every morning I open your word and see the Son rise.
CI hope in nothin, boast in nothin, only in your suffering.
BbI live to show your glory, dying to tell your story.
[Chorus]
[Bridge:]
DmGlory was solely meant for you.
FDoing what no one else could do.
CWith All I have to give, (With all I have to Give)
I'll use my Bblife, I'll use my lips. (My Lips Yeaaah)
DmI'll only glory in your Word. WhaFt gift to me I don't deserve.
CI'll live in such a way that it reflecBbts to you, my Praise.
[Chorus]
