08. Take My Breath Away

Strong Christian Overtones
by Jeremy Shorter
       
Lyrics:

Verse 1
Lord, I see the mountains
The fields and the trees
The oceans, rivers, lakes
And quiet rushing streams
I see all YOU created
And I breathe the very air
YOU made so that I could live
To show me that YOU care
(But I don’t understand why…)

Chorus
YOU gave me breath (just to take it away)
(Repeat ×3)

Verse 2
Everything is beautiful
The planet that YOU made
The very Word YOU spoke that day
I know will never fade
I see the things YOU made for me,
My family and friends,
The woman that YOU gave to me
The wind knocked out again
(Still I don’t understand why…)

Chorus

Bridge
Long ago YOU made man
And breathed YOUR Life in him
Then sent YOUR Son to take our sins
So we’d be free again
I see all that YOU’ve done for us
YOUR Mercies, new each day
That’s how YOU continue to
Take my breath away
Chorus
