What
am I breathing for?
What
is my heart beating for?
What
are my veins bleeding for?
I
search high, and I search low
Cause
I just wanna know
What
am I breathing for?
What
is my heart beating for?
What
are my veins bleeding for?
Why am
I not satisfied?
Though
I know You stretched Your arms wide
And for
me You died
Yet, I’m
still not satisfied
Though
I know You reside
In me
And
set me free
For
all eternity
I’m
still not satisfied
Even
though I know
I died
with You
Was made
alive with You
And reside
in You
Even
though I know You abide in Me
For
all eternity
I’m
still not satisfied
And
still my soul cries…
What
am I breathing for?
What
is my heart beating for?
What
are my veins bleeding for?
What
is my soul still needing for?
When I
know You are the Door
To
Eternal Life
And I’m
Your beloved wife
Yet,
my soul still strives
To
feel fully alive
Even
as Your chosen Bride
For
whom You died
And
rose to take as Your beloved wife
I came
forth from Your bleeding side
Yet,
my soul still cries
What
am I breathing for?
What
is my heart beating for?
What
are my veins bleeding for?
Stop! Look!
And listen!
Don’t
get the Gospel twisted
Did
you think
That
by faith you’d blink
And
struggle would be no more
All
because you walked through eternity’s Door?
If you
never hungered
And
never wondered
What
you’re breathing for
What your
heart’s beating for
What
your veins are bleeding for
You’d
never seek My face
So, I
could fill your empty space
And
make you My dwelling place
Let Me
tell you what you need
Is to
become a receiver of seed
By
becoming fertile soil
And a
vessel of precious oil
Not so
that you can toil
And
strive with all your might
But so
that you can reside
In Me,
your resting place
Beholding
My glorious face
So
that you can learn to be
Exactly
what you see
As you
behold Me
So
that you can learn to trust
And
rid yourself of the lust
To
know and control
Even
the hunger of your own soul
Let Me
tell you
What
you’re breathing for
What
your heart’s beating for
What
your veins are bleeding for
Your
purpose is to become
Wholly
one
As a
mature son
To be
My habitation
That
every nation
May
hasten their feet
To
feel My heartbeat
Through
you
So,
just be you
Let
your lungs keep breathing
Let
your heart keep beating
And
your veins keep bleeding
Cause
in each moment of life
I’m
perfecting your sight
And
displaying more light
Through
you
As you
just be you
Behold,
I make all things new
Grace
is My mission
But
flesh keeps wishing
To
take My place
And
that’s why there’s empty space
But
grace will enable you
To see
My face
For
I AM what you’re breathing for
I
AM what your heart’s beating for
And
I AM what your veins are bleeding for
Look
no more
But to
Me, the Door
Of
Eternal Life
And
the Giver of sight
To the
blind
And
the final sign
That
you’ve entered rest
And
are fully blessed
With
no need to strive
To be
fully alive
Cause
I AM what you’re breathing for
I
AM what your heart’s beating for
And
I AM what your veins are bleeding for
You
need to awaken
And to
hasten
To the
understanding
That
though life can be demanding
My
grace is enough
No
matter how tough
The
struggle you face
My
grace is the Way
To
enter the third day
Called
resurrection
So,
make this confession
Lord,
YOU ARE what I’m breathing for
YOU
ARE what my heart’s beating for
And
YOU ARE what my veins are bleeding for
Your
grace is enough for me
I
receive Your Love for me
And
declare that I can see
Myself
standing in Victory
Because
YOU ARE enough for me!
Yes! YOU are ENOUGH for me!
