"Cross Shaped Life" lyrics

"Cross Shaped Life"

We don't need another song to sing
We don't need another gathering
We need a transformation heart shaping love

We don't need another sermon preached
Empty religion or theology
We need arms that reach the way the savior does

So may our hearts look more like mercy
And our love like sacrifice
May we follow the way of Jesus
That we would live a cross shaped life

Lets us stand beside the fatherless
Let us bleed feh those with no defense
Forgive our enemies before they ever change

Put our selfishness and pride to death
Give up everything until all that's left
Is a love that can't be threatened by the grave

So may our hearts look more like mercy
And our love like sacrifice
May we follow the way of Jesus
That we would live a cross shaped life

Turn our words into action
Turn our worship to justice
Turn our thoughts and prayers
Into burdens shared

Turn our songs into mission
Turn our words into movement
Turn our empty praise
Into living change

So may our hearts look more like mercy
And our love like sacrifice
May we follow the way of Jesus
That we would live a cross shaped life
