They laugh 'cause they see

I live for more than me

They point their fingers,

Push me nearer to the flame

They say "We serve no one"

"We just live to please ourselves"

All men serve something...

CHORUS:

Father, carry me high, lift me to the sky

Let me be where You are

Hold me, ever so closely,

Let me know your mercy

Let me be where you are.

They can laugh, but let them see

You are the hope in me

They can point their fingers

Push me nearer to the flame

God, You can save me from the fire

I'm Yours, even if You don't

Whatever comes I take this vow

I will never bow...

CHORUS

I will never bow...

Until you find something

Worth dying for

You're not really living

I will never bow

CHORUS

Father, carry me high, lift me to the sky

Let me be where You are

Father, carry me high, lift me to the sky

Let me be where You are

I want to be where You are

I will never bow.
