livin' we die lyrics

Michael Card
Saved by His death, healed by His pain
Raised to new life to never die again
Before you can have the hope of the call
You've got to give it all
It sounds to good to be true
That the Son of God should die for you
That it could give you the key
To open up your life and set you free
But that's not all of the story
There's something that He gave you
That you got to pay
No matter what that good time gospel tells you
The battle is uphill all the way
Chorus
Livin' we die, dying we live
Givin' it all is what you've got to give
Just look to the Lord and all that He gave
When He died to save you
Saved by His death, healed by His pain
Raised to new life to never die again
Before you can have the hope of the call
You've got to give it all
They sell you a thousand creeds
But you know they're as worthless
As the withered weeds
And as their preaching all of the while
The devil is standing with his backward smile
Cause there's just one Truth
And there's just one Way
And He's a person not a plan
He's not a cold denomination
He's a livin' breathin' man
Repeat Chorus
