Your love is lifting me up
now I'm standing firm in place
where I've always fallen before
I rise, I soar
I'll never know how your love has lifted me up
Your spirit, lifting me up
surround, surrounding me
I will never be alone again
enfold, encircle
I cannot hide from beneath Your gaze
Your mercy, lifting me up
something I don't deserve
and what I've failed to return,
compassion
I'm spared, redeemed
Your mercy lifting me and
I embrace the life oh precious God
now You're living in me!
sustaining grace, lifting me up
rushing in like a flood
and I'm swept away
covered by Your sacrifice
Your blood, Your peace
Your spirit, lifting me and..
I embrace the life oh holy God
now You're moving in me!

Behind the Song:'I embrace the Life '! Track 2 on Mortal's 4th full-length release Pura began as three seemingly disjointed drum loops and unfinished lyrics to a praise song Jyro had been wrestling to write. Once the correct bpm, the right noise loop, and just the right amount of tenacity was found; the song pretty much wrote itself.' - Mortal
