I saw the news today the war is at our door
It's always been there in my heart
The battle between grace and pride has always raged deep inside
It's hard to be friend, when all you want to be is right
Take me down, won't you
Take me down, won't you
Take this crown off of my head
Lift it up, won't you
Lift it up, won't you
Put it back on You again
Back on You again
I tried to analyze the answers to this life
What divided you and me
I can't seem calculate the science of the heart
Love can't be proven easily
Take me down, won't you
Take me down, won't you
Take this crown off of my head
Lift it up, won't you
Lift it up, won't you
Put it back on You again
Back on You again
Oh I've, stolen all this time from you
Oh I, tried to steal your thunder too
Oh I, reject the gift you freely give
Oh I, fulfill empty promises
I've taken riches that were yours
To justify my holy wars
I have spun a web of lies
All so I could criticize
I've kicked you out of my hearts throne
Then wondered why I was alone
So take me now
And break me now
Embrace me now
Take me down
Take me down, won't you
Take me down, won't you
Take this crown off of my head
Lift it up, won't you
Lift it up, won't you
Put it back on You again
Take me down, won't you (Take my selfishness)
Take me down, won't you (Take my foolish pride)
Take this crown off of my head (Go on and lift it up)
Lift it up, won't you (It was always Yours)
Lift it up, won't you (It was never mine)
Put it back on You again
Back on You again
