Take

Skillet · Hey You I Love Your Soul [1998]

Take my strength, take my pride,

Take my selfishness away

Take my rights, take ambition,

Capture me, make me a slave

Break my walls, break my bones,

Break my hardened heart

Rip my rule, rip my will,

Rip independency apart



Breathe Your life, breathe your love,

Breathe Your breath and I'm sustained

Take my hate, take my hurt,

Express healing to my pain

Take my flesh in all its arrogance, my stability away

Take my life, bring fire, 'til only You remain



Laid out on my face (yea)

My tongue hanging out to taste (yea)

Of You and Your death (yea)

And to know Your name (yea)



Accept my gifts, take my crowns,

I spread them at Your feet

When I bleed, I bleed with joy as I taste Your suffering

Flood life, flood peace,

Speak acceptance to my shame

Allow to kneel, allow to praise,

Give the right to speak Your name



Laid out on my face (yea)

My tongue hanging out to taste (yea)

Of Your and Your death (yea)

And to know Your name (yea) (repeat)



Laid out on my face

Want to know Your name (repeat)
