I've been on the run
Livin' in the wind
Again I've gone alone without You
Hiding like an outlaw
I know that I'm to blame
I tried to hide away
But God You
Chased me down
Through the deserts and the ghost towns
Like I'm a wanted man
You called my name
And there's nowhere else to go now
So, Lord, here I am
Hands to the sky
It's time for me to let it go
Lay down my pride
Till the day I die
I'm raising my
Hands to the sky
It's time for me to let it go
Give You my life
I ain't running anymore
I surrender, throwing my
Hands to the sky
Thought that I was free
Miles and miles away
But I've been wearing chains this whole time
Tried and failed to break em
Jesus would you take em
I wanna live with my
Hands to the sky
It's time for me to let it go
Lay down my pride
Till the day I die
I'm raising my
Hands to the sky
It's time for me to let it go
Give You my life
I ain't running anymore
I surrender, throwing my
Hands to the sky
Hands to the sky
God You chased me down
Through the deserts and the ghost towns
Like I'm a wanted man
You called my name
And there's nowhere else to go now
So, Lord, here I am
Hands to the sky
It's time for me to let it go
Lay down my pride
Till the day I die
I'm raising my
Hands to the sky
It's time for me to let it go
Give You my life
No, I ain't running anymore
I surrender, throwing my
Hands to the sky
Hands to the sky
Hands to the sky

Jordan St. Cyr's song is a heartfelt surrender anthem about a person who has been running from God, trying to hide in their own strength, only to realize they are trapped in chains. The lyrics describe God's relentless pursuit, chasing them through deserts and ghost towns, calling their name until they finally respond. The chorus expresses a decision to let go of pride, raise hands in surrender, and give their life fully to God, declaring they are no longer running. It's a powerful message of repentance, grace, and the freedom found in yielding to God's love.
