By God

(album: By God - 2001)

By God

You bring out the best in me
Which is nothing less than Your holiness
Manifest Your power in me
And I'll be a vessel of Your glory

I lay me down, let it rise up in my soul
I'm falling down, so You pick me up again
God tear it down, the walls
That the enemy built around me
Send Your spirit down
Where the spirit is, there is freedom

Oh God, without You I can do nothing
By God, I can do all things

It should've been my hands
It should've been my cross
It should've been my nails
That pierced Your skin
So I deny myself
And I take up my cross
To follow you
Oh, yeah

It's not about me
For by grace, I was saved
By God
And I am not mine
I was bought with a price
By God
And I will live by
Every word from His mouth
By God
He won't back down
Push and you get pushed back
By God

I open up my mouth
Fill it up with the word of God
When I reach out my hand
Lord may it have your healing
Lord, bring it down
Release your power once again
Anoint our hands to do the works
That you once did
Lord, our desire is for
The spiritual gifts of God
Let the children prophesy
Your wonderful works, Lord

Oh God, without You I can do nothing
By God, I can do all things

It should've been my hands
It should've been my cross
It should've been my nails
That pierced Your skin
So I deny myself
And I take up my cross
To follow you
Oh, yeah

It's not about me
For by grace, I was saved
By God
And I am not mine
I was bought with a price
By God
And I will live by
Every word from His mouth
By God
He won't back down
Push and you get pushed back
By God

It should've been my hands
It should've been my cross
It should've been my nails
That pierced Your skin
So I deny myself
And I take up my cross
And follow you [2x]

Oh, yeah

It's not about me
For by grace, I was saved
By God
And I am not mine
I was bought with a price
By God
And I will live by
Every word from His mouth
By God
He won't back down
Push and you get pushed back
By God
