The coals still glow
The morning has begun
I have laid the crown down
I'm learning how to follow
I built my answers high enough to hide
I called it wisdom when it kept You outside
Egon wore the crown, I called the kingdom mine
You said, “Follow Me”
I called retreat divine
I lay down the crown
I take up my cross
I held my life
And feared its loss
You said, “Follow Me”
I'll walk after You
The life I lose for You
Is found in following You
The little god is silent, I no longer write his lines
The crown is on the table with the claims I called divine
There is a human face where I had raised a shrine
I let that heart be human, the next step is mine
I lay down the crown
I take up my cross
I held my life
And feared its loss
You said, “Follow Me”
I'll walk after You
The life I lose for You
Is found in following You
I turn to You
The veil is taken away
Let my mind be made new
Shine Your light into my heart
I lay down the crown
I take up my cross
I held my life
And feared its loss
You said, “Follow Me”
I'll walk after You
The life I lose for You
Is found in following You
The crown stays here
The road begins
After You
One step
