Surround my life, surround my heart
As I surrender to You
Your love invades, Your love disarms
I'm letting go
This selfish pride, this hidden sin
My brokenness attracts You
You take my tears, I take Your hand
I'm letting go
So I breathe Your name
And I raise my hands
Surrendering all I am to You, oh to You
Prevailing grace, prevailing love
You won't relent, You have me
You've won the war, You've won my heart
I'm letting go
So I breathe Your name
And I raise my hands
Surrendering all I am
Take away my shame
Take me as I am
Surrendering all I am to You
I'm finally letting go
I'm finally letting go
Hands in the air, let Your love take over
I need a miracle
I need a miracle
Down on my knees, Jesus, I surrender
I'm finally letting go
I'm finally letting go
Hands in the air, let Your love take over
I need a miracle
I need a miracle
Down on my knees, Jesus, I surrender
I'm finally letting go
I'm finally letting go
Hands in the air, let Your love take over
I need a miracle
I need a miracle
Down on my knees, Jesus, I surrender
So I breathe Your name
And I raise my hands
Surrendering all I am
Take away my shame
Take me as I am
Surrendering all I am, oh
I'm finally letting go
I'm finally letting go
Hands in the air, let Your love take over
I need a miracle
I need a miracle
Down on my knees, Jesus, I surrender
I'm finally letting go
I'm finally letting go
Hands in the air, let Your love take over
I need a miracle
I need a miracle
Down on my knees, Jesus, I surrender
I'm finally letting go
I'm finally letting go
I'm finally letting go
I'm finally letting go
Love take over
I need a miracle
I need a miracle
I need a miracle
I need a miracle
I surrender
I'm finally letting go
I'm finally letting go
I'm finally letting go
I'm finally letting go
Love take over
I need a miracle
I need a miracle
I need a miracle
I need a miracle
I surrender
I surrender
I surrender
I surrender
I'm finally letting go
I'm finally letting go
Hands in the air, let Your love take over
I need a miracle
I need a miracle
Down on my knees, Jesus, I surrender
I surrender
Just as we close this moment
Would you just sing this
Sing, I surrender
I surrender all
Oh, to thee, my
Blessed Savior
I surrender all
I surrender all
I surrender all
Oh to thee, my blessed Savior
I surrender all
I surrender all
I surrender all
Oh to thee, my blessed Savior
I surrender all
