[Pre-Chorus]
I’m letting go, I’m falling in
The smaller I get, the more I win

[Chorus]
I see the Cross, all clear as glass
Light of the Father breaking through at last
Gold on the left, gold on the right
I’m in the center, held by light   ← (swap this line if you want to test options)
I’m shrinking down, I’m taking my place
Lost in the structure, covered in grace
Not I, but Him
Not I, but Him

[Verse 2]
A drop of water, alone and dry
Will fade in the heat, will surely die
But cast that drop in the ocean wide
It gains the power of the rising tide
I don't lose my life, I find it there
Surrounded by water, suspended in air
No longer a target for the enemy’s dart
Hidden inside of the Sacred Heart

[Pre-Chorus]
I’m letting go, I’m falling in
The smaller I get, the more I win

[Chorus]
Oh, the Cross, all clear as glass
Light of the Father breaking through at last
Gold on the left, gold on the right
I’m in the center, held by light
I’m shrinking down, I’m taking my place
Lost in the structure, covered in grace
Not I, but Him
Not I, but Him

[Bridge – Part 1]
(Orchestral swell begins, drums and choir building)
The veil was six stories high
Too thick for a man, too hard to try
We couldn’t climb up, so You came down
You took the nails, You took the crown

[Bridge – Part 2]
(Full band, call and response, choir strong)

Lead: From top to bottom!
Choir: It hit the ground!
Lead: From top to bottom!
Choir: Heaven cried!
All:   "It is finished, the door is wide!"
All:   The gravitational pull
       Of grace coming down
       Grace coming down
       Grace coming down

[Break]
(Sudden silence – 2–3 seconds of complete stillness)
[Optional: a single low cello or pad note fades in softly under the next section]

[Coda]
(Soft, whispered, rubato – breath marks as pauses)

I don't just shrink... I fade...
Into the glory... You have made...
My pride is gone... (pause)
My heart is Yours... (pause)
Behind the veil... (pause)
Behind the doors... (pause)
No more I... no more I...
Just the pulse... within the sky...
Invisible...
Indivisible...
I am gone...
Only You remain...

[Outro]
(Music fades out completely into silence)

[SFX]
(Soft, low, single slow heartbeat)
(Thump... thump...)

[Verse 1] I built a tower to reach the sun A capital "I" for the things I’d done A solid wall that blocked the light Thinking my strength could win the fight But the higher I climbed, the harder the fall The "Big I" was the smallest of all Just a fragile drop on the burning sand Trying to be a sea, trying to stand [Pre-Chorus] I’m letting go, I’m falling in The smaller I get, the more I win [Chorus] I see the Cross, all clear as glass Light of the Father breaking through at last Gold on the left, gold on the right I’m in the center, held by light ← (swap this line if you want to test options) I’m shrinking down, I’m taking my place Lost in the structure, covered in grace Not I, but Him Not I, but Him [Verse 2] A drop of water, alone and dry Will fade in the heat, will surely die But cast that drop in the ocean wide It gains the power of the rising tide I don't lose my life, I find it there Surrounded by water, suspended in air No longer a target for the enemy’s dart Hidden inside of the Sacred Heart [Pre-Chorus] I’m letting go, I’m falling in The smaller I get, the more I win [Chorus] Oh, the Cross, all clear as glass Light of the Father breaking through at last Gold on the left, gold on the right I’m in the center, held by light I’m shrinking down, I’m taking my place Lost in the structure, covered in grace Not I, but Him Not I, but Him [Bridge – Part 1] (Orchestral swell begins, drums and choir building) The veil was six stories high Too thick for a man, too hard to try We couldn’t climb up, so You came down You took the nails, You took the crown [Bridge – Part 2] (Full band, call and response, choir strong) Lead: From top to bottom!
