I've heard it said that a man would climb a mountain
Just to be with the one he loves
How many times has he broken that promise
It has never been done.
I've never climbed the highest mountain
But I walked the hill of calvary
<i>Chorus:</i>
Just to be with you, I'd do anything
There's no price I would not pay
Just to be with you, I'd give everything
I would give my life away.
I've heard it said that a man would swim the ocean
Just to be with the one he loves
All of those dreams are an empty emotion
It can never be done
I've never swam the deepest ocean
But I walked upon the raging sea
<i>Repeat chorus</i>
<i>(Bridge)</i>
I know that you don't understand
the fullness of My love
How I died upon the cross for your sins
And I know that you don't realize
how much that I gave you
But I promise, I would do it all again.
Just to be with you, I've done everything
There's no price I did not pay
Just to be with you, I gave everything
Yes, I gave my life away.
This is one of my favorite songs. I just love the picture that Mac Powell paints here of the promises we make to people we love. How we say we'll do anything for them and that we never do those things we promise we'll do. Then the song shows how Jesus did those things, how he gave everything. He payed the highest price and gave his life for us because He loves us :)
that is so true. i love where he says "I know that you don't understand the fullness of my love..." because we so cannot comprehend how much Jesus loves us. It's so overwhelming and yet he loves us more than we can imagine.

No They are Christians and will sing about God who loves them, they have chosen to write their music about God because God was the one that gave them the talent and ability to write and play music.... So no...They shouldnt learn to write less about God and more about this "REAL" world....I wish other bands would write more about God and less about this FAKE world.
God is more REAL than anything. Hopefully jaywalk you'll find that out soon before it's too late!!!!
im sorry you dont know god jaywalk. The real world is a scarry place and we can find comfort in god! And you need to learn how to spell!!! aethiest* and those type of people are so lost, and the need to find god.

amazing song...brought me through ruff times...."i know that you don't realize how much that i gave you, and i promise I WOULD DO IT ALL AGAIN!!" AMEN!! God Bless you all forever i love you in Jesus!!!
I love Jesus Yes I DO....I love jesus How about you..He is so amazing isnt he? Third day has some awesome songs specially this one.
This song is beautiful, to me it's so personal, it is like jesus talking directly to me and assuring me that although god gave us the gift of love, he displays and has displayed it in a way we could never do. and thats how awesome he is
I've heard it said that a man would climb a mountain Just to be with the one he loves How many times has he broken that promise It has never been done.
I've heard it said that a man would swim the ocean Just to be with the one he loves All of those dreams are an empty emotion It can never be done
I've never climbed the highest mountain But I walked the hill of calvary I've never swam the deepest ocean But I walked upon the raging sea
I SO love these lyrics.. it shows me that people may fail me, but Jesus NEVER has and NEVER will.
