Representative lyrics
English (Original Language)
1. I been hiding out, Slowly sinking down, Sliding further from the light, Laying low afraid of heights. I been drowning in Voices in my head, Saying “I’ll never be good enough.” It’s been a while since I reached out to You, I know. But I been getting tired of trying to do this on my own. I think it’s time for me to let go.
I surrender. I put it in Your hands. I surrender Ev’rything I am. Tried to do it all alone, But I couldn’t even stand. I’m Yours forever. I surrender.
2. My white flag is up; I’ve had enough. It isn’t hard to see; Now I know for sure. I know that You’re the only hope for me. I need brighter days, Go on, lead the way. I will follow You wherever You go. It’s been a while since I reached out to You, I know. But I been getting tired of trying to do this on my own. I think it’s time for me to let go.
I surrender. I put it in Your hands. I surrender Everything I am. Tried to do it all alone, But I couldn’t even stand. I’m Yours forever. I surrender.
I surrender. Ooh hoo. I surrender. I surrender. I put it in Your hands. I surrender Everything I am. Tried to do it all alone, But I couldn’t even stand. I’m Yours forever. I surrender.
