When my body aches I will praise You
When my body breaks I will praise You
When my body knows that my body’s gotta go
I will not hesitate I will bow down and say
That I am here to praise You Lord
When my will breaks down I will praise You
Turning inside out I will praise You
If it comes to pass that my will is Yours at last
And I will bow down low
I will do this just to show that the whole of me
Was made to be a light that shines on You
