I'm leaving the old for the new
I'm leaving the tried for the true
I'm leaving the law for the grace
I'm leaving the image for the face
I'm leaving the behavior for the fruit
I'm leaving the branches for the root
I'm leaving these shackles in this cave
And leaving as a brother, not a slave
Chorus
(i'm leaving)
And jumping this train off of these tracks
(i'm leaving)
I'm running full-steam not looking back
(i'm leaving)
I'm living in the freedom
Taking you at your living words of life
Tonight it's more than simply being right
I'm leaving the sacred and the crass
I'm leaving the elephant and ass
I'm leaving the doctrine and the state
I'm leaving the judgment and debate
I'm leaving abuse done in 'the name'
I'm leaving the guilt that feeds the game
I'm leaving this christianity
For the jesus who sets the captives free
Chorus
And i'm heading for what matters more
Than all this baggage that i'm flinging overboard
I'm finding life through these new eyes
And freedom where the spirit of the lord resides
I'm heading for the sunrise
I'm heading for the sunrise
I'm leaving the death for the life
I'm leaving the harlot for the wife
I'm leaving the system for the art
I'm leaving religion for the heart
Chorus
