DYING TO LIVE — BY ALEX AMOS
I was dying to live
I wanted more than just existing
I wanted to feel my heart beat
Jolted by rush of adrenalin
I was dying to live
I didn’t know the Way
Truth a matter of veracity
and life was like a long and lonely journey heading no where
I was dying to live
Maybe wine, Maybe revelry
reckless abandon, Maybe
And the day after, I will start all over again
I was dying to live
but how?
Seek you shall find — I sought
The ancient wisdom — My source
I was dying to live
Then I realised
The Saviour already died so I can live
I gave my life in exchange for His
Oh happy day — the day I died
Now I am dying to live
I am dying daily
I am dying to things, I am dying to sin
The more I die, the more I live
Now I am dying to live
I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live
I died — Yes, the old me
And everyday eversince
Oh this mortal me
Keep dying so I can live
This new life I’ve found in Him.
“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” – 2Corinthians 5:18
