Burning Down by Phil Joel Lyrics
I know what I've been told
And I know there's flaws in my thinking
Threatening the things I hold
So tight
Still this is my only hope
This is the way to freedom
Cause You are not so concerned with my justice
You let go of Your rights
You expect the same from me
To let the ones who wronged me go free
The burning down of me
This is the cross I see
No other way for me
The burning down of me
This is the grace we have known
The mercy we're shown
The truth, the way
Where life begins again
No greater love can a man show
Than to lay down his life for a another
Even if the other will never know
You're challenging all that I think I deserve
Challenging the ways that I handle my hurt
Cause it's you who shoulders the blame
I'll remember
The burning down of me
This is the cross I see
No other way for me
The burning down of me
This is the grace we have known
The mercy we're shown
The truth, the way
Where life begins again
And I know there's flaws in my thinking
Threatening the things I hold
So tight
Still this is my only hope
This is the way to freedom
Cause You are not so concerned with my justice
You let go of Your rights
You expect the same from me
To let the ones who wronged me go free
The burning down of me
This is the cross I see
No other way for me
The burning down of me
This is the grace we have known
The mercy we're shown
The truth, the way
Where life begins again
No greater love can a man show
Than to lay down his life for a another
Even if the other will never know
You're challenging all that I think I deserve
Challenging the ways that I handle my hurt
Cause it's you who shoulders the blame
I'll remember
The burning down of me
This is the cross I see
No other way for me
The burning down of me
This is the grace we have known
The mercy we're shown
The truth, the way
Where life begins again
