Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All my life I longed to be a hero
With a sword raised high, I'll run into the battle
I was gonna take giants down, be a man you would write about
Deep in my chest is the heart of a warrior
[Verse 2]
So why am I still standing here?
Why am I still holdin' back from You?
I hear You call me up into deeper waters
But I settled on the shallow wave
So why am I still standing here?
[Verse 3]
I was so afraid what it might cost to follow You
I'd walk by faith if I could get these feet to move
But I don't wanna live that way, I don't wanna look back someday
On a life that never stepped across the line
[Verse 4]
So why am I still standing here?
Why am I still holdin' back from You?
You've given me a faith that can move the mountain
But I'm still playin' in the sand
Building little kingdoms that'll never stand
I hear You call me up into deeper waters
But I settled on the shallow wave
[Verse 5]
I'm so tired of standing here
What if I gave everything to You?
[Verse 6]
What if I gave everything?
What if I stopped holding back from You?
Starting now I'm stepping out onto deeper water
What if I gave everything?
What if I stopped holding back from You?
Starting now I'm stepping out onto deeper water
I want to see some mountains move
Ready to give everything
Say goodbye to standing here
