Verso 1

Sometimes you gotta step into the river
Before the waters part
Gotta get out of the boat
Before you know if you can walk
Faith’s a gamble on
His faithful history
Cause if you want to follow Jesus
You can’t bet on what you see

Refrão 1

Strength is weakness
Weakness is strength
Living is dying
Dying is gain

Refrão 2

You get forgiveness
By giving it away
When you save your life you’ll lose it
When you lose it you’ll be saved

Verso 2

When you want to go to war
Send out the tambourines
Disorient the enemy
With the songs that you sing
We don’t fight towards the flesh
And our weapons don’t make sense
If you want to follow Jesus
Make peace with foolishness

Refrão 1

Strength is weakness
Weakness is strength
Living is dying
Dying is gain

Refrão 2

You get forgiveness
By giving it away
When you save your life you’ll lose it
When you lose it you’ll be saved

Ponte 1

Backwards King

Ponte 2

Ponte 1

Backwards Kingdom
Backwards King

Ponte 2

Form Your Kingdom in me
In me

Refrão 1

Strength is weakness
Weakness is strength
Living is dying
Dying is gain

Refrão 2

You get forgiveness
By giving it away
When you save your life you’ll lose it
When you lose it you’ll be saved

Refrão 1

Strength is weakness
Weakness is strength
Living is dying
Dying is gain

Refrão 2

You get forgiveness
By giving it away
When you save your life you’ll lose it
When you lose it you’ll be saved
