Selfless, helpless, worthless deceased
You've raised me up and made me feel your peace
I've been nothing but a tomb for so long
I said I'm nothing but dead and wrong
A dead man can't choose the elixir of life
force it on me, God. Remove the knife
take away this weapon I've lodged in my chest
Remove my hand and
show me your love, show me your rest
Dear God, I feel lost and done
but I remember the last words of your Son
"IT IS FINISHED", and the curtain is torn
you have saved me, I'm reborn
Free will is mine, but I pick death
cursing your love with my every breath
you still came, you still saved
unfettered, now no longer a slave
A dead man can't stand up tall
a dead man can't stand at all
a dead man can't stand up tall
dead men wil reap the fall
amazing grace, how sweet the sound
locked in darkness and tightly bound
but you came, and your death was the key
thank you, Jesus. you made me free.
