I'm Alive

Built my defences around the senses
All my assurance on false pretences
And I was so caught up in all these pretty things
All my life on a lie, all my future on the line
You came to show me, you came to stir me
Another process, another journey
So I would not conform to the fallen world around me
A love from eternity
Has lifted these chains from me
And now I'm forever free
I'm Alive, I'm Alive, I'm Alive, I'm Alive
While I was dreaming, thought I was flying
Felt so familiar, felt so beguiling
Just like a memory of how it used to be
All my life unafraid, all my future unrestrained
Found my defences, beyond the senses
Outside the natural, new life commences
So I will not conform to the fallen world around me
A love from eternity
Has lifted these chains from me
And now I'm forever free
I'm Alive, I'm Alive, I'm Alive, I'm Alive
The limits of life are gone
My spirit will carry on
You planned for it all along
I'm Alive, I'm Alive, I'm Alive, I'm Alive
I once was blind but now I see
I once was lost but you came down
My chains fell off my heart was free
You knew the cost but you came down to rescue me
A love from eternity
Has lifted these chains from me
And now I'm forever free
I'm Alive, I'm Alive, I'm Alive, I'm Alive
The limits of life are gone
My spirit will carry on
You planned for it all along
I'm Alive, I'm Alive, I'm Alive, I'm Alive
