This is a really powerful song, to me. I read alot of these comments, and some people are trying to say As I Lay Dying are not religous, but you can deffentaly see it in this song. This song is about someone wanting to love Christ as much as Christ loves him to give his life up for him. But, he wants to give more than he can. The line "but i've failed You so many times" is meaning he can't serve him as good as he wants, and failed him, or sined. "You laid down Your life when i refused to give mine" is about how christ died on the cross for US, but this person just can't. Powerful song, one of my favorts.
