How Fragile We Are
How Fragile We Are
Author: Mark V. Markov
Redeemed by Christ
In Him we are one
His holy blood
Washes our sins away
Because of God's only Begotten Son
In our mind and heart
The peace within us
Always stays
This true statement
As we could
So we should
In this life
Without any argument
For all those born
Into this world
Under the stars
Fearfully
And wonderfully made
By our Creator
On and on
Time goes on
We stand
We fall
With faith in Jesus Christ
we rise again
To overcome
Our fallen nature
Fearfully
And wonderfully made
By our Creator
On and on
On and on
Under the stars
We see
That without God
How fragile we are
On and on
This life says
Without God
How fragile we are
On and on
This life always says
Without God
How fragile we are
On and on
On and on
Under the stars
We see
That without God
How fragile we are,
How fragile we are
On and on
Time goes on
We stand
We fall
With faith in Jesus Christ
we rise again
To overcome
Our fallen nature
Fearfully
And wonderfully made
By our Creator
On and on
This life will say
Without God
How fragile we are
On and on
We see
That without God
How fragile we are,
How fragile we are.
