Long Before I Was Born

Refrain: 

You made me, you formed me,

You kept me alive long before I was born.

You kept me alive long before I was born.

1. You have sought me out and found me.

You know where I sit or stand.

You know the depths of my heart, whenever I move or rest.

You find me wherever I am,

You find me wherever I am. Refrain.

2. Before the word comes from my mouth, you know what I want to say.

You come close to me. 

You lay your hand upon me.

All of this is too much for me,

All of this is too much for me. Refrain.

3. How can I ever hide from you? Where can I run from you?

Above and below you are there. 

To the dawn or to the sea you are there.

Your hand will guide my way,

Your hand will guide my way. Refrain.

4. You have created every inch of me. You have knit me to my mother's womb. 

You have record of all my days, 

Long before they ever begin.

How amazing your thoughts, O God,

How amazing your thoughts, O God. Refrain.

Living Sacrifice

Refrain:

Take my life a living sacrifice,

Knowing it’s the least that I can do.

Make my life a living sacrifice,

Holy and acceptable to You

1. I looked upon my life

and realized at last within myself there’s nothing I can do.

And yet here I stand to offer all I am

and give myself completely Lord to You.

Refrain.

2. I cannot be content

until I've reached that place.

How little I have given up to You.

Lord, break down my will,

Make my desires your own.

I long to give my everything to You. Refrain 2x.

Coda: Holy and acceptable to you.
