Prelude Lyrics

Lord I come selfishly

I've seen what you've done for others

And I want that for me

I've been living self righteously

Yeah, I've been saving up the counterfeit

And it buries me

Oh, it buries me

I wanna know what it's like to wake up with a purpose

To know, to feel, to go, to go to bed in peace

I want promises that I can count on

And love that others can see

Lord, I come to you selfishly

But I don't wanna stay that way

Before I crawled

I learned of shame

And as I failed, I learned to shift the blame

Since then, I've been filled with emptiness

Oh, envy leans in for my first kiss

And it tastes of bitterness

I wanna know what it's like to wake up with a purpose

To know, to feel, to go, to go to bed in peace

I want promises that I can count on

And love that others can see

Lord, I come to you selfishly

But I don't wanna stay that way
