lyrics

Verse 1

I’ve got no hope in this world
I’ve got no hope in this world cause it's lying
I’ve got no hope in myself
I’ve got no hope in myself
Cause I'm dying when I say, "I can live on my own."

Pre-Chorus

oh oh oh, I'm tired of living in all of this fear
oh oh oh, when You are the light of my world
oh oh oh, the grave can’t hold

Chorus

You
You’re the reason I’m alive
You pulled me from the grave
You pulled me from the graveyard

Verse 2

I’ve tried to live on my own
I’ve tried to live on my own but I’m failing
I’ve tried to love by myself
I’ve tried to love by myself but I’m useless, I’m useless

Bridge

Your hand
Lift's me up when I can not stand
Your hand
Raised me from the dead
