I walk the world on insect legs, beneath an unforgiving sun
Eat the dirt throughout my days,
Born in dirt, in dirt I come undone
Messiah born in bethlehem won't find me lying dead,
The world's too big for Him to see me, or hear the thing's I've said
Hold me to You as I pray,
Take the rest of the world away
My blood runs warm because of You,
The scales fall out of my eyes
I laughed in the keep of the man with hooves,
My mandibles are caked in trash
Thought You wouldn't recognize me in the black of soot and ash
Don't turn a deaf ear to my voice, there's one thing I want You to know:
I have always loved You, though my life has never said so
Hold me to you as I pray,
Take the rest of the world away
My blood runs warm because of You,
The scales fall out of my eyes
Hold me to you as I pray,
Take every other thing away
My heart is breaking now for You,
The scales are out of my eyes
I love You Lord, and I lift my voice to worship You,
Oh my soul, rejoice
Take joy my King, in what You hear,
Let the sweet, sweet, sound in your ear
