How can I count the ways
You have changed everything
For me
And helped me
To see
I can rise above
All those stupid self destructive thoughts
You were there
When others disappeared
You held all the tears
That I cried
As I begged you to
End my life
Now all I want
All I want
Is to be alive
And all these years
When I said let me die
You stretched your hand
And said let there be life
And all the people
That hurt me
I pray God
Will reveal his grace
To you
And you'll live
In Christ and truth
And know that me, me and him
Have forgiven you
And all these years
When I said let me die
You stretched your hand
And said let there be life
Let's have Christmas every night
And celebrate were still alive
On everyone I speak healing
As pain is silenced by God's light
Through all the hurt and all the pain
No one could take this joy away
Hell took it all
I'm still breathing
God was there
Through everything
And I'm praying
He will un mar
All the wrists
All the scars
All the abuse
All the fear
Cause God is right here
Let's have Christmas every night
And celebrate were still alive
On everyone I speak healing
As pain is silenced by God's light
Through all the hurt and all the pain
No one could take this joy away
Hell took it all
I'm still breathing
God was there
Through everything
All the times I said let me die
Jesus said let there be life
All the times I said let me die
Jesus said let there be life
