I've been running, trying to be one who sees I've been working, salvation out on my knees There is nothing better than knowing That we are redeemed Unbelieving trusting in creative hands, I am praying for our world to bow to your plan And this one thought is unmistakable I take up my cross and follow you Lord When you stand the tall trees and mountains bow When you speak the fiercest of oceans is still And I see the sinner seek devotion The lost become chosen, and I fall to my knees Unforgiven, my savior who did not deserve death He was blameless and I was lost in shamefulness Undelivered, but it doesn't seem right Unless I keep my eyes focused on the savior who gave his live In the middle of a world that denies it believes It is breaking apart at the very seams There is one thing to be alive for And it's to take up my cross and follow you Lord I will take up my cross and follow Lord where you lead me And I will take up my cross and follow wherever you go
