You can have me.

"If I saw you on the street
And you said "Come and follow me"
But I had to give up everything
All I once held dear and all of my dreams

Would I love you enough to let go?
Or would my love run dry
When you asked for my life?

When did love become unmoving?
When did love become unconsuming?
Forgetting what the world has told me,
Father of Love, you can have me.

You can have me.

If You're all You claim to be,
Then I'm not losing anything.
So I will crawl upon my knees
Just to know the joy of suffering

I will love You enough to let go.
Lord, I give You my life.

I give You my life.

I want to be where you are.
I'm running into your arms
And I will never look back
So Jesus, here is my heart."
