A more mellow return of the earlier track "Teach me to fall". This song reflects Paul's perseverance and humility right through to the end of his ministry.

You’re all I’ve got, but you’re all I need
You taught me to fall into the ground and die like a planted seed
You’ve been so great, I’m still so small
Teach me the art of not giving up or giving in ‘till I’ve given all
You’ve faced the shame, you’ve the storms
First the crown of thorns, until the royal throne
I’ll bear the cross, gladly follow you
You’re not asking me to do anything that you first didn’t do
So when you picked your dreams from the desert dust
Your religious zeal has been found corrupt
When God’s not who you thought he was
When you flick your eyes and you cannot see
You’re led by the hand to a strange city
When your only friends were your enemies
When you kick yourself for the life you’ve lived
When you know your only righteousness is his
When you’re scared what God’s expecting you to give
And when the scales have fallen from before your eyes
When you’ve burnt all your bridges and cut all your ties
When it’s God’s way for the rest of your life
Still cry “Teach me”
