Life´s too short to be lukewarm,
This is I know, this I know.
Jesus You can have it all
My every breath,
My every breath.
I need Your power to live this life,
This I know, this I know.
I can´t do this by myself;
You´re Christ in me
My only hope,
My only hope.
As I walk this broken world,
Tune my life to heaven´s song
For I am Yours.
And when all is said and done,
Tune my life to heaven´s song
Forevermore.

Behind the Song:'Half way through recording the album, we were at Abbey Road studios in London for a couple of days. At that point I still felt there was another song to come, and there´s nothing like a deadline to get you focussed! In a quiet moment, I escaped into the studio lounge with my guitar, and this song was written really quickly. The idea of having our lives tuned to heaven´s song was something I´d been playing with for a while, and in these moments it all started to come together.
We came into the studio the next day and recorded it on a lovely upright piano, right in the middle of the big space of Abbey Road Studio 2. We decided right there and then it needed a big string section on it, and a few weeks later recorded a 27 piece orchestra in the city of Prague.' - Matt Redman
