Lost it All...

Was born into this hope-filled world, though sin would make me fall;
Held onto all the worldly flesh, until I lost it all...

My parents gave me everything, still I couldn't heed His call;
Took all that I could take from them, yet somehow lost it all...

Growing bigger still my heart stayed broke, though my body it grew tall;
Even with my council great, I failed and lost it all...

The day did come, I met my bride, and then my son did crawl;
Though still I took it all for naught, I failed, near lost it all...

No matter what this world did give, no peace from life I'd draw;
So I canceled all my hopes, it seems I've lost it all...

And so this life encumbered me, enslaving me in its jaw;
A cold hard road did I progress, once blessed I lost it all...

Trapped inside these chains that bind, my soul cried out so small;
It seemed so hard to even wake, for sin I lost it all...

Until that day when darkness broke, and devil's grip befall;
He thought that he had captured me too late, I lost it all...

The water and Blood that fell for me, my stony heart dissolved;
Those chains no longer held hold on me, not one I lost them all...

Since that day, He came for me, and became my all in all;
The power of those vises dimmed, each one I've lost them all...

If our hearts ensnared, enchained, and need those shackles to fall;
Give up all your life for Him, be blessed and lose them all!

The Spirit is that still, small voice, inside, it's He who calls;
Let Jesus change your heart to new, your hurts, He takes them all!
