Rebecca St. James Album: If I Had One Chance To Tell You Something Track: Alive
Alive Lyrics
I always wanted to be free 'Til I was bound and then I always wanted my own way 'Til I saw that I find my life when I lose it
You make me come alive You make me come alive I found the secret It's only when I let go of what I want in this life You make me come alive
I used to think that me, myself and I were all that mattered But You've shown me all this world can give Cannot compare to the joy that comes from Giving away
And as I follow after You Now I need to Leave my past, myself behind This I will do
I always wanted to be free 'Til I was bound and then I always wanted my own way 'Til I saw You 'Til I saw You
Since my month-long trip to L'Abri, a study center in the Swiss Alps, there has been a sense of renewal in both my heart and in my ministry. This song represents a new season of life for me. "Self-sacrifice is the way, my way, to finding yourself, your true self." Matt. 16:25
