I will drink Your cup of poison
You’re far too keen on where and how and not so hot on why
Show me there’s a reason for your wanting me to die
Have to know, have to know my Lord
I’m not as sure as when we started
For I don’t want to taste its poison
See the saga through and do the things you ask of me
But You hold every card
Then I was inspired
Then I was inspired
Listen, surely I’ve exceeded expectations
Wanna see, I’d wanna see my God
What you started, I didn’t start it
Tried for three years, seems like thirty
Why I should die?
Why should I die?
If I die what will be my reward?
See how, see how I die
But if I die
Have to see, I'd have to see my Lord
Would I be more noticed than I was ever before?
Why should I die?
See how I die
Let them hate me, hit me, hurt me, nail me to their tree
Nail me to Your cross and break me
Could you ask as much from any other man?
Bleed me, beat me, kill me, take me now
God, Thy will is hard
Now I’m sad and tired
Just, just watch me die
Have to know, I'd have to know my Lord
Alright I’ll die
If I die what will be my reward?
Have to see, I’d have to see my Lord
Seems like ninety
I'd wanna know, I'd wanna know my God
Would the things I’ve said and done matter any more?
Can you show me now that I would not be killed in vain?
Have to know, I’d have to know my Lord
Now I’m sad and tired
Feel it burn me, I have changed
After all I’ve tried for three years
I'd wanna know, I'd wanna know my God
I’d have to know, I’d have to know my Lord
Show me just a little of your omnipresent brain
Take this cup away from me
Why then am I scared to finish what I started
Wanna see, I’d wanna see my God
