Song Lyrics

---

You’re the Light of the world
Lord, You are holy and true
If it were not for Your mercy
I’d be destroyed by Your truth
But You gave Yourself to be
The only sin offering
Your blood was shed
To rescue me
Savior, I am Yours

So like the sacrifice
May I be tied to the altar
Here is my life
God, it’s all I have to offer
And forever may I be consumed
Lord, by Your flame
And forever devoted to You
By Your great name

The purity You require
Is the grace that You provide
So that I may stand before You
With no sin I need to hide
For You gave Yourself to be
The only peace offering
Your blood was shed
To make me clean
Jesus, I am Yours

And like the sacrifice
May I be tied to the altar
Here is my life
God, it’s all I have to offer
And forever may I be consumed
Lord, by Your flame
And forever devoted to You
By Your great name

So let my prayers rise to You like incense
Before Your throne like a sweet-smelling fragrance
Let me come to the table of Your presence
There to find the meaning of my existence
To see Your faithfulness through the ark of the testimony
To come and meet with You, Lord, there in the holy of holies

So like the sacrifice
May I be tied to the altar
Here is my life
God, it’s all I have to offer
And forever may I be consumed
Lord, by Your flame
And forever devoted to You
By Your great name

Romans 12:1 “Therefore I urge you in view of God’s mercy to offer Your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God.”
