Song Lyrics

Lord, take me
From this place
Into a world that has no time.
No hurries, no worries,
Gladly I leave them all behind
Down here; I'm letting go and drawing near.

I wanna sing.
I wanna fly.
I wanna see from Your side of the sky.
I wanna love.
I wanna stay,
Wanna be close to You
Long after the music fades.

Lord, I come
To give You
Much more than just a melody.
Please take me and break me;
Right now God, I don't want to leave
Unchanged; I never wanna be the same.

I wanna sing.
I wanna fly.
I wanna see from Your side of the sky.
I wanna love.
I wanna stay,
Wanna be close to You
Long after,

'Cause Lord You are
Mighty, Awesome, Righteous,
Gracious, Knowing,
In me overflowing.
Father, Teacher, Master, Leader
Jealous, Loving, You are.

And you make me wanna sing.
I wanna fly.
I wanna see from Your side of the sky.
I wanna love.
I wanna stay,
Wanna be close to You
Long after,
And I wanna sing.
I wanna fly.
I wanna see from Your side of the sky.
And I wanna love.
I wanna stay,
Wanna be close to You
Long after,
Wanna be close to you
Forever after,
Wanna be close to you,
Long after the music fades,
Long after the music fades.

You are life.
You are love.
You are everything that I'm needing.
You are life.
You are love.
You are everything that I'm needing.
You are life.
(I wanna be.)
You are love.
(I wanna be.)
You are everything that I'm needing.
(I wanna be closer.)
You are life.
(I wanna be.)
You are love.
(I wanna be.)
You are everything that I'm needing.
(I wanna be closer.)
You are life.
(You are.)
(I wanna be.)
You are love.
(You are.)
(I wanna be.)
You are everything that I'm needing.
(You are.)
(I wanna be closer.)
You are life.
(You are.)
(I wanna be.)
You are love.
(You are.)
(I wanna be.)
You are everything that I'm needing.
(You are.)
(I wanna be closer.)
You are life.
(You are.)
(I wanna be.)
You are love.
(You are.)
(I wanna be.)
You are everything that I'm needing.
(You are.)
(I wanna be closer.)
