Live Like That

I heard this song over and over for the longest time and never paid much attention to it. It wasn't the sort of song I am normally drawn to, so I always turned it down or didn't listen. One day I was driving and Levi was asleep and I listened to the words, and it instantly became one of my favorites. It is such a great every-day prayer, and it really makes me focus on things that are really important instead of getting caught up in stupid things that don't matter. It's good (for me) to step back every once in a while and examine my life and make sure that I'm living it a glorifying way, and not spending time, resources, and energy on things that are carnal.

Live Like That by Sidewalk Prophets 

Sometimes I think
What will people say of me?
When I'm only just a memory,
When I'm home where my soul belongs?

Was I love,
When no one else would show up?
Was I Jesus to the least of those,
Was my worship more than just a song?


I want to live like that
And give it all I have
So that everything I say and do
Points to You


If love is who I am
Then this is where I'll stand
Recklessly abandoned
Never holding back


I want to live like that
I want to live like that


Am I proof
That You are who you say You are,
That grace can really change a heart?
Do I live like Your love is true?

People pass
And even if they don't know my name
Is there evidence that I've been changed?
When they see me, do they see You?

I want to live like that
And give it all I have
So that everything I say and do
Points to You

If love is who I am
Then this is where I'll stand
Recklessly abandoned
Never holding back

I want to live like that
I want to live like that


I want to show the world the love You gave for me
I'm longing for the world to know the glory of the King

I want to live like that
And give it all I have
So that everything I say and do
Points to You

If love is who I am
Then this is where I'll stand
Recklessly abandoned
Never holding back

I want to live like that
I want to live like that
