I want to bring You all that is in my heart
I want to bring You my everything
But I've failed You so many times
How can I stand here before You
When I begin to steal what only belongs to You
I am able to bring You nothing that isn't already Yours
I am so ashamed of what I ever called my own
Take what I have, take these broken remains
What can I give You that You don't already deserve
You laid down Your life when I refused to give mine

    Unless the writer of this song lost a friend in the army...then...I believe this song to be about the writers relation with Christ, the word you is capitalized in the middle of sentences. 'You laid down your life when I refused to give mine.' Meaning Christ laid down his life, and that second part Im a bit confused on
