Because this was an extended version, we've revised it to fit right with the instrumentals that inspired the flow.
Here is the performance version but be sure to read the extended lyrics.
SAY YES TO LIFE
Agitated.
Feels like all hope is gone.
Feels like I’m stuck and there’s
No one there to save me.
Separated.
From both my God and man
I just don’t understand
How I could feel this way
I gather myself, take victory from all
I cannot afford to have destructive thoughts
Determined to rise and live on instead
I say yes to life. I am no longer dead.
Frustrated.
When did it come to this?
I really just want to quit
I don't know how I can go on
I gather myself, take victory from all
I cannot afford to have destructive thoughts
Determined to rise and live on instead
I say yes to life. I am no longer dead.
Oh O…………h Lord! Oh, O………h Lord!
Oh O…………h Lord! (2X)
Daily I struggle…
My very heart deprived
It must be better than this
Hear my heart, hear my thoughts; take heed to my call!
I gather myself, take victory from all
I cannot afford to have destructive thoughts
Determined to rise and live on instead
I say yes to life. I am no longer dead.
I gather myself, take victory from all
I cannot afford to have destructive thoughts
Determined to rise and live on instead
I say yes to life. I am no longer dead.
Oh O…………h Lord! Oh, O………h Lord!
Oh O…………h Lord!
There’s nothing left to embrace
But for one glimpse of Your face
Lead me Lord, Lord take control. Before You I fall!
