If life is water, I was dry as Tuscon dirt
If it's a gamble, I'd already lost my shirt
If it's a journey, I was dazed without a clue
I flipped a "U" back to the first love I ever knew
YOU GIVE ME JOY THAT'S UNSPEAKABLE
AND I LIKE IT, AND I LIKE IT
YOUR LOVE FOR ME IS IRRESISTIBLE
I CAN'T FIGHT IT, I CAN'T FIGHT IT
YOU CARRIED THE CROSS AND TOOK MY SHAME
I BELIEVE IT, I BELIEVE IT
YOU SHINE YOUR LIGHT OF AMAZING GRACE
I RECEIVE IT, I RECEIVE IT
If life's a battle, the invasion is complete
It it's a rhythm, I have found the perfect beat
If it's a renaissance, I've got a new birthday
The world don't give it and the world can't take it away
I'm bowed and broken, everything's new
All that I need, You're like water to seed
And how Your love rights everything wrong
And in my weakness, You're ever stronger
You're pulling me back where I belong
