The Altar And The Door

The Altar And The Door - Casting Crowns

Written by：Mark Hall

Careless

I am reckless

I'm a wrong way traveling

Slowly unraveling shell of a man

Burnout

I'm so numb now

That the fires just an ember way down in

The corner of my cold cold heart

Lord this time I'll make it right

Here at the altar I lay my life

Your kingdom come but my will was done

My heart is broke as I cry

Like so many time before

But my eyes

Are dry before I leave the floor

O lord I try I try

But this time jesus how can I be sure

I will not lose my follow through

Between the altar and the door

Here at the altar

Oh my world is so black and white

How could I ever faultier

What you've shown me to be right

Lord this time lord this time

I'll make it right I'll make it right

Here at the altar I lay my life

Your kingdom come but my will was done

My heart is broken as I cry

Like so many times before

But my eyes are dry before I leave the floor

O lord I try I try

But this time jesus how can I be sure

I will not lose my follow through

Between the altar and the door

I'm trying so hard

To stop trying so hard

Just let you be who you are

Lord who you are in me

Jesus I'm trying so hard

To stop trying so hard

Just let you be who you are

Lord who you are in me

O lord I cry I cry

Like so many times before

But my eyes are dry

Before I leave the floor

O lord I try I try

But this time jesus how can I be sure

I will not lose my follow through

Between the altar and the door

But my eyes are dry

Like so many times before

But my eyes are dry

Before I leave the floor

O lord I try I try

But this time jesus how can I be sure

I will not lose my follow through

Between the altar and the door

Like so many times before

But my eyes are dry
