Story Behind The Song
Looking at our lives, we have become modern day Lazarus figures, dead to our selves due to ourselves. Lucky for us there's a happier ending to our stories...if we want one.

Lyrics
Even now
After all I've done
Everything that I've said
Here You stand
Reaching out to me
To raise me from the dead Even now
I don't know what I'm thinking,
as I try to make sense of it all
Living life in this broken world
At the core of my problem
I don't seem to hear Your call
Blind to the Light,
Deaf to the warnings,
Stumbling along towards a fall
Even now
After all I've done
Everything that I've said
Here You stand
Reaching out to me
To raise me from the dead Even now
My perfect imperfection,
always causes me to fall short
And I am flawed from the very start
It's my fear of the future,
all the regrets that I have for my past
And in spite of myself,
is there no way of making
Making my happiness last
Even now
After all I've done
Everything that I've said
Here You stand
Reaching out to me
To raise me from the dead Even now
"Peccata Mundi"
Who Are You That Stands Above Me
"Peccata Mundi"
Who Am I That You Should Love Me
"Peccata Mundi"
If This Is True What You Are Saying
"Peccata Mundi"
Even now, We're still worth saving
With our eyes finally opened,
We stand amazed at what we now see
Your Promise is spoken,
bonds are all broken,
We're alive through Eternity
Even now
After all we've done
Everything that we've said
Here You stand
Reaching out to us
To raise us from the dead Even now
