I Will Live

One might try to find meaning in life on his own
But we need our Redeemer; we can’t live alone
He gives comfort and healing, and silences strife
He gives clarity, meaning, and purpose to life

I will live

For Yeshua has raised me from chains and from death
He has given me everything: heartbeat and breath
And a mission He’s given and sent me to go
He has called me by name; could I answer Him “no”?

I will live

No, I’ll never give up and I’ll never let go
Though the going is tough and the progress is slow
And in days of distress I refuse to despair
I will cry to my El; He will answer me there

I will live

For my El didn’t lift me to let me fall down
And I haven’t been saved to let go of my crown
And I wasn’t redeemed to do nothing at all
I will cherish His word–never flee from His call

I will live

“Oh, but doomsday is coming quite soon!” one might say
“We must run; we must hide–there is no other way
That our lives shall be saved from this upcoming war.”
So he hides–doesn’t live–so then what’s his life for?

I will live

Life is not about safety–don’t hide in a shell
Life is meant to be lived; life has stories to tell
Life’s a gift from Yehovah–don’t waste it, my friend
Let’s live life to the fullest, from start until end

I will live

I will live for the One Who has called me His own
I will live by His side; I shall not live alone
I’ll give ear to His voice, for in Him, yes, I can
Do His purpose and will and complete all His plan

I will live

I will live in His power, His love, and His grace
I will hope for the day when I’ll stand face to face
With Yeshua, and Him I shall thank and adore
I will live in the presence of Yah evermore

I will live
