Careless, I am reckless 
I'm a wrong way traveling 
slowly unraveling shell of a man. 
Burnout, I'm so numb now 
that the fires just an ember way down in the corner of my cold, cold heart. 
Lord this time, I'll make it right 
here at the altar I lay my life. 
Your kingdom come, but my will was done 

[chorus] 
My heart is broke as I cry 
like so many time before. 
But my eyes 
are dry before I leave the floor. 
O, Lord I try (I try) 
but this time Jesus how can I be sure 
I will not lose my follow through, 
between the altar and the door. 

Here at the altar, oh my world is so black and white 
how could I ever faultier, what you've shown me to be right? 
Lord this time (Lord this time) 
I'll make it right (I'll make it right) 
Here at the altar I lay my life 
Your kingdom come but my will was done 

[chorus] 
My heart is broken as I cry 
like so many times before. 
But my eyes are dry before I leave the floor. 
O, Lord I try (I try) 
but this time Jesus how can I be sure 
I will not lose my follow through, 
between the altar and the door. 

I'm trying so hard, 
to stop trying do hard, 
just let You be who You are Lord, who you are in me. 
Jesus, I'm trying so hard 
to stop trying so hard 
just let You be who You are 
Lord who you are in me. 

[chorus] 
O, Lord I cry (I cry) 
like so many times before. 
But my eyes are dry 
before I leave the floor. 
O, Lord I try (I try) 
but this time Jesus how can I be sure 
I will not lose my follow through, 
between the altar and the door. 
(repeat)
