- Songwriters: John Landrum Cooper
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'Âm sustained
Take my hate, take my hurt
Express healing to my pain
Take my flesh in all its arrogance
Spill it through your veins
Take my life, bring fire
'Til only You remain
Laid out on my face, yeah
My tongue hanging out to taste, yeah
Of You and Your death, yeah
And to know Your name, yeah
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, yeah
My tongue hanging out to taste, yeah
Of You and Your death, yeah
And to know Your name, yeah, yeah
Laid out on my face, yeah
My tongue hanging out to taste, yeah
Of You and Your death, yeah
And to know Your name, yeah
Laid out on my face
Wanting to know your name
Laid out on my face
Wanting to know your name, yeah
