[Verse 1]
[low vocal register
Male]
White-knuckle on the wheel again
Counting every penny
Every plan
Heart racing like I run this show
But I’ve seen how far my strength can go
[Verse 2]
[female lead answers]
I write lists on the kitchen floor
Pray
Then still push every door
Say “Your will” but I fight Your hand
Like a wave trying to boss the sand
[Chorus]
[full band
Choir enters]
I surrender the reins
Take my fear
Take my striving
You are God in the flame
In the storm
You’re still providing
When I’m holding on too tight
Lift my hands into Your light
I surrender
I surrender the reins
[Verse 3]
[male lead]
You fed a crowd with crumbs and faith
Called the seas to sit and wait
So why am I still drawing lines
When Your mercy’s outside mine
[Pre-Chorus]
[call and response
Female then male]
You say “Seek first
Trust Me now”
(I’ve been chasing lesser crowns)
You say “Child
Put your burdens down”
(You are here on this holy ground)
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[band drops
Piano + pads
Quiet choir oohs]
[female lead]
Open hands
Open heart
Tear my little kingdoms apart
[male lead]
You are good
You are near
Even when I can’t see clear
[Bridge]
[build
Drums rising]
[female + male unison
Then choir]
I let go of the need to know
I let go of the fear to grow
I let go
Every breath
Every step
Choir:
You lead on
We’ll follow
We’ll follow
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
