something beautiful


something beautiful

your life, sacrifice
your price, poured out for me
the day, love would pay
to take my sin, away

something wonderful
something good
you took my brokenness
when no one else could

something beautiful
something beautiful
something beautiful
something beautiful
of me

two thousand years, and three days
hell’s put under, you were raised
to make, scornful sinner
like me, set free

something wonderful
something good
you took my brokenness
when no one else could

something beautiful
something beautiful
something beautiful
something beautiful
of me

you took my pain, you took my shame
you took my brokenness, from me

something beautiful
something beautiful
something beautiful
something beautiful

something beautiful
something beautiful
something beautiful
something beautiful
of me

box


box

take this box that is tied with string
inside this box is all I have to bring
hold it with two hands
never let it go

take this box although it’s small
it isn’t much but it is my all
please take the scratches
mend them with patches

when the world stops to mourn
because my box is ripped and torn
paper, string is scattered
you are all that matters

this is my box for you to spend
please take it all, form beginning to end
when this box should break
bend or fall

when the world stops to mourn
because my box is ripped and torn
paper, string is scattered
you are all that matters

when this box should break
bend or fall

i’ll say that I have given you my all
they’ll say that I have given you my all
you’ll say that I have given you my all
