[NEEDTOBREATHE:]
I chased You into the light
Yeah I stayed there
To see myself pure
All the ashes
And scars they fail
They pale in
Comparison to Yours
There were footprints
The size of the universe
There were fortunes
That no one could earn
So I chased You farther still
And I hope that I never return
From the river's mouth
To the mountain peak
Through the great divide
And the valley deep
I need You to carry me
Carry me
Carry me, I'm on my way
But I'm in too deep
I need You to carry me
[Jon Foreman of Switchfoot:]
You were calling me
Into the deep
Into waters that
No map could find
You were calling me
Out beyond my fears
Where my darkness
Finds rest in Your light
I found a fortress
Where I could surrender
Where my shame
Didn't hide what I lacked
And so I chased You
Out farther still
Cause I know that
I ain't never coming back
From the river's mouth
To the mountain peak
Through the great divide
And the valley deep
I need You to carry me
Carry me
Carry me, I'm on my way
But I'm in too deep
I need You to carry me
[NEEDTOBREATHE & Switchfoot:]
I found a place where
The past was forgiven
Where my mistakes met
A grace I couldn't earn
And so I piled up my excuses
And defenses in the night
Then I lit a match
Stepped back and
Watched them burn
From the river's mouth
To the mountain peak
Through the great divide
And the valley deep
I need You to carry me
Carry me
Carry me, I'm on my way
But I'm in too deep
I need You to carry me
I need You to carry me
From the day I was born
To the end of these seas
I need You to carry me
