Lay Down My Life

Vicki Yohe


I can hear you whisper 
I can feel the heartbeat of my true destiny 
I can see you in the distance 
Standing at the crossroads sayin "Come follow me" 
And I know what it cost to follow 
To say I want to go where you go 
But still it isn't hard to decide 
'Cause Lord, I realize that I can't 
Really be alive until I…. 

Lay down my life 
And take up my cross 
All that was gained to me before 
I count it as loss 
And I'm trading it all 
A small sacrifice 
For the knowledge of Christ 
I lay down my life 

I know that I can't go on any longer 
Until I learn to completely surrender 
My will to your will 
My way to your way 
Take me Lord 
My heart is yours 
Forever from today
