Verse 1
I’ve been carrying what I was never meant to hold,
Every worry, every weight, every story untold.
I’ve tried to be strong, tried to figure it out,
But my hands are tired from living in doubt.
You never asked me to carry the load,
You just asked me to trust You with the road.
Pre-Chorus
So I open my hands, I loosen my grip,
I don’t need control to know I’m safe in this.
Chorus
I lay it down at Your feet tonight,
Every fear, every ache, every restless fight.
You are faithful, You always come through,
So I’ll rest my heart in the care of You.
I don’t have to know how or when or why,
I just have to trust You with my life.
I surrender the weight I’ve been carrying around,
I lay it down… I lay it down.
Verse 2
I’ve been losing sleep over things I can’t change,
Borrowing tomorrow’s trouble, living in the strain.
But You say, “Come closer, let Me give you rest,”
Not a list of answers—just peace in my chest.
You see the sparrow, You know my name,
If You hold the world, You can carry my pain.
Pre-Chorus
I don’t need a plan as long as I know
I’m held by the One who won’t let me go.
Chorus
I lay it down at Your feet tonight,
Every fear, every ache, every restless fight.
You are faithful, You always come through,
So I’ll rest my heart in the care of You.
I don’t have to know how or when or why,
I just have to trust You with my life.
I surrender the weight I’ve been carrying around,
I lay it down… I lay it down.
Bridge (build)
When the waves rise high and my faith feels small,
You’re still the same—You’re Lord of it all.
I don’t walk alone, I don’t stand afraid,
Your love goes before me, clearing the way.
Breakdown (quiet, spoken)
I’m done trying to be my own savior.
I choose to be held.
Final Chorus (Lift)
I lay it down, every care, every sound,
Every voice that tells me I might not be found.
You are good, You are true, You are enough,
I trust You with my future, I trust You with my love.
If You ask me to wait, I’ll still believe,
You’re already working on what I can’t see.
I surrender the weight I’ve been carrying around,
I lay it down… I lay it down.
Outro (soft, resolved)
You take care of me…
I trust You completely.
