  • I was born without a sound
    I didn't cry so they put me in an iron lung
    All alone and nearing death
    But I heard Your heartbeat pulsing through my chest

    Oh, oh-oh-oh
    You took my breath away
    So I would learn to need You

    My mother prayed I'd make a noise
    'If You do this for me then You can have my son back'
    My father made a deal with God
    And then he left me stranded in the arms of love

    Oh, oh-oh-oh
    You took my breath away
    So I would learn to need You
    To learn that I could never ever live without You
    Oh, You take my breath away
    You take my breath away, and all those years ago
    I could feel You hide me in the shadow of Your wing
    And straight away I loved You 'cause You were singing songs
    That someday I would sing
    That someday I would sing

    There's a heartbeat
    There's a heartbeat
    There's a heartbeat
    Can you hear it?
    You're my heartbeat
    Can you hear it?
    You're my heartbeat
    I can feel it
    I can feel it

    [Interlude]

    And I heard the sound of Your voice
    I felt the breath in my lungs
    I felt the joy in my bones
    And I started to sing, I started to sing
    I felt the wonder of love
    I knew the kindness of God
    I joined with the angels above
    And I started to sing, I started to sing for You
    And I started to sing for You
    And I heard the sound of Your voice
    I felt Your breath in my lungs
    I felt the joy in my bones
    And I started to sing, I started to sing for You
    And I started to sing for You
    Forever I'll sing for You
