To Ever Live Without Me

This song was the special music at church on Sunday. I had never heard it before, but the words are pretty amazing! The last line of the chorus says: "Cause You would rather die than to ever live without me". It might sound a little cocky, but it's SO true! He came and died, paid the ultimate price, so that He could call us "friend". Will we ever grasp His amazing love?



To Ever Live Without Me
Jody McBrayer

Choices, even though You knew the lines
You'd have to cross for me
You made them anyway
Voices, as You knelt there in the garden
'Neath the olive tree
You heard me call Your name
I cannot pretend to understand it all
But heaven knew the reason You were there

Chorus
It was all about a man
It was all about a cross
It was all about the blood that was shed so I would not be lost
It was all about a love
That was bigger than a life
It was all about the freedom that was given through Your sacrifice
'Cause You would rather die than to ever live without me

Helpless, that's humanity without Your saving grace
So misled
Selfless, You could have called ten thousand angels
Down to take your place
But You took mine instead
I cannot pretend to understand it all
But heaven knew the reason You were there

Chorus

A greater love has no one than this
That he will lay his life down for his friends

Chorus
