Nothing specifically inspired this song.  It's just a fun Christian song that I spent a couple days writing and perfecting.  Enjoy!!

(I have this cool little 'oo' thing that I do when I sing 'you' but I'm not going to bother trying to put it in the lyrics here.)

Verse:
Some night I sit alone and just wonder
How others live their lives
When they're doing it for themselves

I wonder how they could feel at peace
When struggles come their way
And they don't have someone who saves

Prechorus:
I guess I don't understand how the others think
'Cause that's not me, no that's not me
I guess I don't understand how they live that way
'Cause I know the truth

Chorus:
I'm living for the one who saved me when You had no reason to
I'm living for the one who gave his life so I didn't have to
Sometimes this world tries to tell me what I should do
But I'm living for you
You

Verse:
There's a joy that grows stronger
Every time I think of your promises
And all that sin you washed away

And there's a peace that fills my heart
Every time I think of the ones we lost
'Cause I know they're in a safer place

Prechorus:
I guess I don't understand how the others live
'Cause that's not me, no, that's not me
I guess I don't understand how they look at these things
But I know the truth

Chorus:
I'm living for the one who saved me when You had no reason to
I'm living for the one who gave his life so I didn't have to
Sometimes this world tries to tell me what I should do
But I'm living for you
I'm living for you

Bridge:
That's all I want to (I'm living for)
That's all I can do

Chorus:
I'm living for the one who saved me when You had no reason to
I'm living for the one who gave his life so I didn't have to
Sometimes this world tries to tell me what I should do
But I'm living for you
I'm living for you

Outro:
You're the one I live for
(I'm living for)
You're the one I adore
You are what I'm living for

You're the one I live for
(I'm living for)
You're the one I adore
You are what I'm living for
