Phil Baquie - Live By Faith lyrics

Well I've done my share of self-comparing
And what I find, is it gets wearing
When my eyes aren't where they should be

When I contemplate the circumstances
I react with my defenses
When I should just let you lead

Because when I try to figure why
I let myself get swept away
Into a flood of fear and doubt
When all you ask of me

chorus:
Is to trust you (is to trust you)
And to love you (and to love you)
And to live this fragile foolish life by faith

It's to trust tyou (it's to trust you)
And to love you (and to love you)
Lord how I can't wait to see you face to face
But till then I will live by faith

When I try to understand
I never do quite comprehend
This life is nothing more than a breath

So I give it up to figure why
I let myself get swept away
Into a flood of fear and doubt
When all you ask of me

(repeat chorus)

You are the vine, I am the branch
I yield to you, no more to chance
To live is Christ, To Die Is Gain
To crucify, this flesh is slain
I have nothing more to give
But a choice, surrendering
This life I live is not my own
Lord to you I let it go

chorus:
It's to trust you (it's to trust you)
And to love you (and to love you)
And to live this fragile life by faith

It's to trust you (it's to trust you)
And to love you (and to love you)
Lord how I can't wait to see you face to face
But till then I will live by faith
