Dead Man Walking Lyrics

John Waller Dead Man Walking

I am a dead man
Sure as I'm living
I am a dead man
Though I am breathing
I'm dead and gone
This is my song
I'm a dead man walking, singing

I am crucified with Christ
No longer I live
Now the life in me
Is only in Him
I am seated with Christ
I’m not coming back
All my life I’ve never been so alive
I am crucified, I’m crucified

Now every day my
Reason for living
Is now in dying
My life surrender
I’m dead and gone
This is my song
I’m a dead man walking, singing

If we try to save our lives
We will lose them, we will lose them
If we lay them down and die
We will find them
By grace through faith in Christ alone
Come and sing the dead man's song

No longer I live
Now the life in me
Is only in Him
Now I’m seated with Christ
I’m not coming back
All my life I’ve never been so alive
I am crucified, I am crucified
I am crucified
I’m a dead man walking
I am crucified, I am crucified
I am crucified
I’m a dead man singing
