Stand to Fall

I've been sitting in the chapel for the last hour. Trying to find the words for a tune that's been in my heart all day. They came, I listened and now I can haunt this church with my singing :) lstm. I think I'm going to title it: Stand to Fall



I've spent my whole life searching, for what...I don't really know.
I've spent my whole life striving, to be the kind of man who would go.
Yes, I've spent plenty years believing, that I could never follow Your call.
No, I can't believe I was so foolish, it's time to stand...which means it's time to fall....

And I fall, to my knees, it's the only place that I want to be!
And I fall, upon this ground, God I sense Your Spirit...it's all around!

'Cause in weakness, You are my strength! In my shame, You're my victory!
And In my sin, I know I'm redeemed! In my pain, you've caused me to sing!

And I fall, to my knees, it's the only place that I want to be!
And I fall, upon this ground, God I sense Your Spirit...it's all around!

'Cause in weakness, You are my strength! In my shame, You're my victory!
And In my sin, I know I'm redeemed! In my pain, you've caused me to sing!

I've given most of my heart, for the things of this earth.
I've given most of my heart, so I could fill up my hurts.
Yes, I've spent plenty years believing, that I could never follow Your call.
No, I can't believe i was so foolish, it's time to stand...which means it's time to fall....

And I fall, to my knees, it's the only place that I want to be!
And I fall, upon this ground, God I sense Your Spirit...it's all around!

'Cause in weakness, You are my strength! In my shame, You're my victory!
And In my sin, I know I'm redeemed! In my pain, you've caused me to sing!

And I fall, to my knees, it's the only place that I want to be!
And I fall, upon this ground, God I sense Your Spirit...it's all around!

'Cause in weakness, You are my strength! In my shame, You're my victory!
And In my sin, I know I'm redeemed! In my pain, you've caused me to sing!

I've been offered a choice, to respond to His love.
I've been totally washed, yes cleansed by His blood.
Yes, I've spent plenty of years believing, but now Lord I'll respond to your call!
No, I won't deny that I was so foolish, but I'll take my stand! Lord, I'll take my fall!

And I fall, to my knees, it's the only place that I want to be!
And I fall, upon this ground, God I sense Your Spirit...it's all around!

'Cause in weakness, You are my strength! In my shame, You're my victory!
And In my sin, I know I'm redeemed! In my pain, you've caused me to sing!

And I fall, to my knees, it's the only place that I want to be!
And I fall, upon this ground, God I sense Your Spirit...it's all around!

'Cause in weakness, You are my strength! In my shame, You're my victory!
And In my sin, I know I'm redeemed! In my pain, you've caused me to sing!

Jesus I fall, to my knees, You're the only one that I'll ever need!
Jesus I fall, upon this ground, I need Your Spirit...Lord Your mercy abounds....
