[Verse 1]
I walked and fell
Sniffed that smell
The sins of my past came back to haunt me
Lived that life
Yet I would find a way to fall in an instant
Now every time that I speak
I recognise that I’m weak unless you’re pulling the strings
Replenish my heart when I fall
Turn me right back to the call
But now I know that it’s not me
[Chorus]
Same power that conquered death lives in you
Same power that conquered death lives in you
You fought for so long, you ran away from yourself
But hiding no more can help you
You lived your own song, but now you finally need help
You cry to the Lord to help you
[Verse 2]
You see like – bringing a light bulb back to life
Is not dependent upon whether or not that bulb has might
Your brightness – will not ignite unless the right insight
Was decided prior to lining wires tight inside that light
But given the fact that we attack the dream, can actually enact
The distraction we dispatched, but he can happily detach
These cracked pacts, lacking the actual stats to retract
My lackey happy backing, when he whacks and snaps that track, – come on
Do you get this, or are you broken too much?
Are you faded, jaded, lost your way – created to trust
But you won’t, or you can’t, or you’re not willing to try
This soul’s cold, but he told the boldest to fly
I feel like if we really feel the nearing steering to rise
Then appearing to be veering from the cheering’s no surprise
Are you hearing half their cries, or just peering through their eyes?
Is adhering to their feelings fearing’s, endearing all replies? – yeah
We’ve had a chance to do our best
But in this dance of life we handed off the standards to impress others
Who were not following
And our mouths started borrowing
All the little phrases that were praises – our souls started hollowing
[Chorus]
Same power that conquered death lives in you
Same power that conquered death lives in you
You fought for so long, you ran away from yourself
But hiding no more can help you
You lived your own song, but now you finally need help
You cry to the Lord to help you
[Verse 3: Will Small]
The same power? Sometimes that hard to believe
– but breathe –
Every day new mercies come
Breath a reminder of spirit in lungs
Taste the grace on your tongue
With every mouthful of oxygen
Every beat of the drum
Every movement the strum
Of your heart being strung
Together into one with the cosmic son
Do not miss the reminders of the miracle of resurrection
Occurring even in your cells right now, the progression
Of new life bursting forth from yesterday’s grave yards
Yes today’s hard – but
You are a vessel waiting to bloom with power and weakness
When you are feeling defeated, you are closer to Jesus
Than in your moments of strength when you feel you don’t need him
Somewhat ironic, a whole lot liberating
You don’t need to be amazing
You can let go, let grace in
Power begins in powerlessness
In the moment you acknowledge you are not at the centre
You are not holding things together
You are animated by forces beyond your control
Are you pushing against them, or embracing the roll
Of an instrument
A conduit, a river
A branch in the vine
Meeting place of the dust and the divine
May you and I be water turned into wine
May you and I be water turned into wine
May you and I be water turned into wine
[Bridge]
I was not born to be torn in the directions, this infection would impart
So you’re bringing me singing the song back, on the long track to the start
I was not born to be torn in the directions, this infection would impart
So you’re bringing me singing the song back, on the long track to the start
In my soul, I sing
[Chorus]
Same power that conquered death lives in you
Same power that conquered death lives in you
You fought for so long, you ran away from yourself
But hiding no more can help you
You lived your own song, but now you finally need help
You cry to the Lord to help you
Same power that conquered death lives in you
Same power that conquered death lives in you
You fought for so long, you ran away from yourself
But hiding no more can help you
You lived your own song, but now you finally need help
You cry to the Lord to help you
Cry to the Lord to help you
Hiding no more
