I try to fit You in the walls inside my mind / I try to keep You safely in between the lines / I try to put You in the box that I’ve designed / I try to pull You down so we are eye to eye // CHORUS: When did I forget that You’ve always been the King of the world / I try to take life back right out of the hands of the King of the world / How could I make You so small / When You’re the one who holds it all / When did I forget that You’ve always been the King of the world // Just a whisper of Your voice can tame the seas / So who am I to try to take the lead? / Still I run ahead and think I’m strong enough / When You’re the one who made me from the dust // REPEAT CHORUS // You set it all in motion / Every single moment / You brought it all to be / And You’re holding on to me // REPEAT CHORUS // You will always be the King of the world
/ But even if You don’t I pray // CHORUS: Help me want the Healer / More than the healing / Help me want the Savior / More than the saving / Help me want the Giver / More than the giving / Oh help me want You, Jesus / More than anything // You know more than anyone that my flesh is weak / And You know I’d give anything for a remedy / And I’ll ask You a thousand more times to set me free today / But even if You don’t I pray // REPEAT CHORUS // When I am desperate and my heart’s overcome / All that I need, You’ve already done / When I am desperate and my heart’s overcome / All that I need, You’ve already done // REPEAT CHORUS
