Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

For those that I hold most dear to me

For those I call my family

How could?You?love them more?than me

Somehow You do


All these prayers?I'm scared to pray

All these things I wanna say

All the times? I'm?in the way

Forgive me, God

I trust ?You, God


Let it be Your heart

Let it be Your words

This weight that I've been carrying

I know it's never meant for me

Remind me once again it's in Your hands

Let it be Jesus


For all the days still up ahead

Lead me from my selfishness

To live and love the way You did

I want to, God

I need You, God


Let it be Your heart

Let it be Your words

This weight that I've been carrying

I know it's never meant for me

Remind me once again it's in Your hands

Let it be Jesus


Bridge:

In the light of eternity

Let Your love be the very thing

That brings us all together

And draws us to the Savior

You are God over everything

And I know You don't miss a thing

You're moving in the unseen

Your perfect peace surrounds me


In the light of eternity

Let Your love be the very thing

That brings us all together

And draws us to the Savior

You are God over everything

And I know You don't miss a thing

You're moving in the unseen

Your perfect peace surrounds me
