It's been a long time coming
You've been waiting for me come in
But I'm pridefully choosing
To lean on my own understanding
It's bad behavior like a bandit
But even still, Lord, you never stop inviting me
To come to Your place to dine in
You have prepared a table
Ready for me to come sit at
The bread and the wine remind me that
I need you to
Keep me meek and mild
Dependent like a child
Only by Your blood
Will I rise up with the Son
The way to death is wide
With only one lifeline
Keep me in Your way
Get me through that narrow gate
(Humble me, humble me, humble me)
Humble me Lord, I need You
To take over again with Your truth
I can't do anything
Apart from divine intervention
'Cause You are my highway to Heaven
Only Jesus gives me my rest from running
He's the peace when my mind is haunted
He's the joy set before me
I will abide in the presence
Come with a hearth of confession
Only He can
Keep me meek and mild
Dependent like a child
Only by Your blood
Will I rise up with the Son
The way to death is wide
With only one lifeline
Keep me in Your way
Get me through that narrow gate
Not by might
Not by strength
Not by my power
But by Your Spirit, God
Not by might
Not by strength
Not by my power
But by Your Spirit, God
Keep me meek and mild
Dependent like a child
Only by Your blood
Will I rise up with the Son
The way to death is wide
With only one lifeline
Keep me in Your way
Get me through that narrow gate
