(Intro - Spoken rhythmically)
The first step of recovery...
Is gettin' over the denial stage.
Hmph.
Do you have any hurts, habits, or hang-ups?
(Verse 1)
You tell yourself, "I'm doin' fine."
You think, "I don't have a problem."
But something's climbing up your spine
And you're stuck down at the bottom.
Are you powerless? Is it takin' priority?
Are you wondering why you just can't get ahead?
Why your life's not what you planned for it to be?
(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, I've been there, I know that place
Lost and broken, filled with doubt
Stuck inside that losing race
Just looking for a way back out
(Chorus)
You gotta give it up to God! (Yeah!)
Just relinquish all control! (Give it up!)
'Cause He's the only one who's strong enough
To come and make you whole.
You gotta turn your face away
From all the pain and sin
Just Repent, Cry, Worship, Fast,
And Pray, Pray, Pray... (Pray, pray, pray) let the healing in.
(Verse 2)
Now the devil, he's not far behind
He's whispering in your ear.
He loves the darkness in your mind
He feeds on all your fear.
But there's a power rising up
You're ready for the fight
Just stomp on that old devil's head
And step into the light!
(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, I've been there, I know that place
Lost and broken, filled with doubt
(This time I'm finding my way out!)
(Chorus)
You gotta give it up to God! (My God!)
Just relinquish all control! (Relinquish!)
'Cause He's the only one who's strong enough
To come and make you whole.
You gotta turn your face away
From all the pain and sin
Just Repent, Cry, Worship, Fast,
And Pray, Pray, Pray... (Ooh) let the healing in.
(Bridge)
(Music gets softer, more rhythmic)
'Cause Jesus has all the authority
He says that you are loved
You are a child of the King above.
And listen... you're not meant to do this all alone.
(Music starts to build!)
So get into the Word! (Get into the Word!)
Find your small group! (Find your small group!)
Get yourself to church! (Get yourself to church!)
He'll see you through! (He'll see you through!)
The devil has no more authority
So let that light shine deep in your soul!
Believe it! Can you picture it?!
(Breakdown - Vocals only, clapping)
Give it up to God...
Relinquish control...
He's the only one...
Who can make you whole...
One, two, three, GO!
(Final Chorus - Music explodes back in)
You gotta give it up to God!
(Give it all up!)
Just relinquish all control!
(He's the only one!)
'Cause He's the only one who's strong enough
To come and make you whole.
You gotta turn your face away
From all the pain and sin
Just Repent, Cry, Worship, Fast,
And Pray, Pray, Pray... let the healing in!
(Pray, Pray, Pray!)
(Outro)
We're not done yet
There's more He wants to show.
Making lists... making amends...
Watching how you grow.
Seventy times seven.
(He forgives...)
Seventy times seven.
(We forgive...)
Seventy times seven.
(Fade out)
