Worlds Apart Lyrics
Artist(Band):Jars Of Clay
"Worlds Apart"
I am the only one to blame for this
Somehow it all ends up the same
Soaring on the wings of selfish pride
I flew too high and like Icarus I collide
With a world I try so hard to leave behind
To rid myself of all but love
to give and die
To turn away and not become
Another nail to pierce the skin of one who loves
more deeply than the oceans,
more abundant than the tears
Of a world embracing every heartache
Can I be the one to sacrifice
Or grip the spear and watch the blood and water flow
To love you - take my world apart
To need you - I am on my knees
To love you - take my world apart
To need you - broken on my knees
All said and done I stand alone
Amongst remains of a life I should not own
It takes all I am to believe
In the mercy that covers me
Did you really have to die for me?
All I am for all you are
Because what I need and what I believe are worlds apart
I look beyond the empty cross
forgetting what my life has cost
and wipe away the crimson stains
"dull the nails that still remain"
More and more I need you now,
I owe you more each passing hour
the battle between grace and pride
I gave up not so long ago
So steal my heart and take the pain
and wash the feet and cleanse my pride
take the selfish, take the weak,
and all the things I cannot hide
take the beauty, take my tears
the sin-soaked heart and make it yours
take my world all apart
take it now, take it now
and serve the ones that I despise
speak the words I can't deny
watch the world I used to love
fall to dust and thrown away
I look beyond the empty cross
forgetting what my life has cost
so wipe away the crimson stains
"dull the nails that still remains"
so steal my heart and take the pain
take the selfish, take the weak
and all the things I cannot hide
take the beauty, take my tears
take my world apart, take my world apart
I pray, I pray, I pray
take my world apart

Power of God | Reviewer: Dillon | 8/9/2007
I think one thing to keep in mind when listening to any worship music, is that it all comes from God. Everything is of Him and through Him. When I hear the song, especially the live version, I cant help but to sing along with it and whole heartedly mean every word I sing. As the others put it, this is one of the most inspiring songs I have heard to date.

Worlds Apart Review | Reviewer: Michael | 2/10/2007
Simply put the greatest song ever written as far as meaning and inspiration. The words alone describe the feelings and emotion about the very moment you are giving your heart to the Lord. It brought me to the Lord years ago and I still can not get the song or lyrics out of my head. Hope this song can do the same for anyone out there dealing with a diconnect from God. It isn't easy, but He will never be late. God Bless!

EXCEPTIONAL WORLDS APART | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/11/2006
VERY INSPIRING TODAY FOR ALL AGES TO LOOK AT WHERE THEY ARE AT IN LIFE AND WHERE THEY WILL BE GOING WITH OUT JESUS. HOW WE ALL MUST BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR OUR ACTIONS EACH DAY, BE THANKFUL FOR WHAT JESUS HAS SACRIFICED FOR THE LOVE HE HAS FOR HIS PEOPLE, AND LOOK TOWARD HIM FOR GUIDANCE AND DIRECTION.
