You knew us from the start
Our every moment
Though we fell apart
You chose to love us
Never letting go
You sent Your Son for us
He came into the world
With one desire
To lead us from our sin
Remove our failures
So we could meet with You
And know ourselves as Yours
In a world that tries to find a way in itself
Searching high and low looking for a meaning
We will hold to what we know is truth know is love
Life is found when we give ourselves all to You Lord
Give it all give it all to the One who’s Life
Give it all give it all to the One who’s Life
Give it all give it all to the One who’s Life
Saved mine
Our future in Your hands
Our lives with purpose
Sins now erased
Our past behind us
Never looking back
We know ourselves as Yours
This we know we have a new life
We are Yours now and forever
In this life all that we seek
To be with You more than anything
(repeat 5x)
