Yesterday I placed my life
Before You once again
Surrendered everything I had
And everything You know I am
But, Lord, this is now and that was then
I die to my ambitions
I die to selfish pride
I take up my cross and cast my will aside
My life upon the altar as a sacrifice I lay
What joy to live and die another day
Tomorrow I will come to You
Like all the times before
Needing daily grace
I'll crucify the flesh once more
And count it as a privilege, O Lord
I die to my ambitions
I die to selfish pride
I take up my cross and cast my will aside
My life upon the altar as a sacrifice I lay
What joy to live and die another day
For me to live is Christ and to die is gain
I die to my ambitions
I die to selfish pride
I take up my cross and cast my will aside
My life upon the altar as a sacrifice I lay
What joy to live and die another day. - See more at
