lyrics

My foot leaves the ground and when I am found
On this soil again I will be a different man
Cause I know it’s a path that I knew couldn’t last
The one thing left to ask is will I come back alive again
I have never faced anything this deep before
I have never needed so much change in me, I’m sure
That this will both destroy and raise me up to life again
So let’s begin

Kill me to raise me
Wound me to heal me
I will feel the sting of death
If it will bring Your living breath
Bring refining fire
Melt my desire
Kill the death that haunts my soul
And let Your Spirit come and make me whole
Won’t You come and make me whole

I’m shaking off the dust from this old heart of rust
Knowing that it must somehow be made flesh again
I’m so desperate to feel just one thing that is real
And finally reveal the wounds that have bled me dry

Kill me to raise me
Wound me to heal me
I will feel the sting of death
If it will bring Your living breath
Bring refining fire
Melt my desire
Kill the death that haunts my soul
And let Your Spirit come and make me whole
Won’t You come and make me whole

I have never faced anything this deep before
I have never needed so much change in me, I’m sure
That this will both destroy and raise me up to life again
So let’s begin

The smell of death has lingered in my heart for far too long
Cause I have let the old man rot when he should have been gone
Set a bonfire, burning high
And let the ashes fertilize my heart
That this death might be the start of life in me

Kill me to raise me
Wound me to heal me
I will feel the sting of death
If it will bring Your living breath
Bring refining fire
Melt my desire
Kill the death that haunts my soul
And let Your Spirit come and make me whole
Won’t You come and make me whole
