Not to win Not to fight Not for profit Or to prove that I'm right Not for show Nor facade Sackcloth and ashes alone Aren't accepted by God But to give And to unlock the doors To take from my hand And to place it in Yours To break every yolk And to cut loose the chains To give clothes to the naked And a roof from the rain Not to steal Or demand what is due Not to lie And pretend that it's true Not to do Nor to speak as I please Not to harden my heart to the dying And to live at my ease But to give You my life Without keeping a part To return to my God And repent with my heart Throw open the door To the one lock outside And to worship the King Without falseness or pride And your light will arise And break through like the sun And your righteousness shine When obedience is done Guarded by God And led forth by the Lamb When you cry with your voice He will say, here I am!
