Lyrics

With this heart o pen wide, (G)from the depths, from the heights,

I will bring

a sac

ri fice.

With these hands lift ed high, (G)hear my song, hear my cry.

I will bring

a sac

ri fice,

I will bring

a sac

ri fice.

I lay me (C)down; I’m not my (G)own.

I be (Am7)long to (G)You a (F)lone.

Lay me (C)down, lay me (Gsus)down.

(Am)Oh,

hand on my (C)heart, this much is (G)true: there’s no (Am7)life a (G)part from (F)You.

Lay me (C)down, lay me (Gsus)down.

Let ting go of my pride, (G)giv ing up all my rights.

Take this life

and let

it shine.

Take this life

and let

it shine.

I lay me (C)down; I’m not my (G)own.

I be (Am7)long to (G)You a (F)lone.

Lay me (C)down, lay me (Gsus)down.

(Am)Oh,

hand on my (C)heart, this much is (G)true: there’s no (Am7)life a (G)part from (F)You.

Lay me (C)down, lay me (Gsus)down.

Let ting go

It will be my (C)joy

to say,

“Your will,

Your way.” It will be my (Am)joy

to say,

“Your will,

Your way.” It will be my (C)joy

to say,

“Your will,

“Your will,

Your way.” It will be my way.” It will be my (G)joy

“Your will,
