Petra - If I Had To Die For Someone lyrics

Words and Music by Bob Hartman

I wear my seatbelt in the car I buckle up for safety

I run for cover from the storm

I wear a band aid on my knee I look both ways when crossing and I flee

Any danger I can see

And if I try each day to save my life in every way I can

How could I understand the way

You died for me

'Cause I don't know if I could even if I think I would

If I had to die for someone

If I had to die for someone else

How could I ever give my life to set the guilty free

When I cannot imagine

If I had to die for someone else like me

Someone else like me

I keep away from falling rocks and I don't play with matches

I lock the door I don't know why

It seems to me I'm much too old to wear a scarf out in the cold but

I want to live until I die

I guess I love my life a little more than I should love it

And if I had to I don't know if I could

Lay it down

And I am glad that You are not at all like me

'Cause You laid down Your life and did it willingly

It still amazes me to know

It's me that You were thinking of

No One else could have a greater love
