Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I thought I had it all figured out, I was wrong
Chasing answers just to prove that I was strong
I saw the shallow echo of myself in the mirror
A whisper of who I used to be, staring back clearer
Haven't felt normal in so long
Trying to carry what was never mine all along
[Pre-Chorus]Every step I took alone?Left my heart more tired than before
[Chorus]
I'm powerless to make a good choice
When fear is louder than my voice
I'm learning change comes wrapped in pain
But mercy washes me like rain
I come to believe I'm not alone
There's a power greater than my own
I finally drop the mask I've got
I'm learning to let go and let God
[Verse 2]I built my life on what I could control?Held every answer tight, paid the toll?But the weight of pride bent my knees?Now surrender feels like sweet relief
I admit I need help to be whole?I can't fix my heart or save my soul
[Pre-Chorus]I've tried every other way?But grace is the only thing that stays
[Chorus]
I'm powerless to make a good choice
When fear is louder than my voice
I'm learning change comes wrapped in pain
But mercy washes me like rain
I come to believe I'm not alone
There's a power greater than my own
I finally drop the mask I've got
I'm learning to let go and let God
[Bridge]I don't have to have it all together?I don't have to carry this forever?When my strength is gone, You're enough?You catch me when I fall, You lift me up
I lay my will down at Your feet?Broken is where You start with me
[Chorus]
I'm powerless to make a good choice
When fear is louder than my voice
I'm learning change comes wrapped in pain
But mercy washes me like rain
I come to believe I'm not alone
There's a power greater than my own
I finally drop the mask I've got
I'm learning to let go and let God
[Outro]
I come to believe with all I've got?That You are faithful,
You are God?And in this moment, here and now?I let go...
and I let God
