Song Lyrics
Some days, Lord, I can’t stand myself
I’m tired of this selfish pride
Then I hear You calling out to me
To give You all I am inside
But part of me wants to hold back
I’m so afraid of what You’ll do
And part of me wants to let go
Why can’t I simply trust in You
Help me abandon me
Until all of my life
Is surrendered now to You
Want to abandon me
Can’t do it by myself
Lord, come and teach me how to
Abandon me
Help me, Lord, not to waste this day
For You do more than I can dream of
I want to do all You call me to
And see the power of Your love
But part of me wants to hold back
Afraid of what I don’t understand
Lord, part of me wants to let go
And so to simply trust in Your plan
Help me abandon me
Until all of my life
Is surrendered now to You
Want to abandon me
Can’t do it by myself
Lord, come and teach me how to
Abandon me
What if I lost it all
What if I found everything
When I lost myself
When I finally let go of me
What if I found You
What if I found all that’s true
God, show me the freedom of letting go
And giving You control
Help me abandon me
Until all of my life
Is surrendered now to You
Want to abandon me
Can’t do it by myself
Lord, come and teach me how to
Abandon me
