I smile I cry I breathe You are good You give I take Life moves Ends too soon
There's a never-ending passion running in my veins And I'm drunk on its conviction And I savor every taste I want to be salt Salt of the earth Then You can rain down Your living water And quench the thirst Take my best and all my faults Grind them up and make me salt
Lord, make me salt They work They dream They hope Like I do They need They strive Life's hard without You It slowly kills a part of me Your word's not heard So use what You can of me to help preserve
The good that's in this world It won't be easy 'Cause nothing that matters ever is So I will let go Swallow all my pride and comfort I promise You I won't be watered-down
