I come to the Father
Nothing to offer but my sin
You see it all
You see it all
I come to the altar
I've come to the end of my own way
I wanna know you
Just wanna know you
Awake my soul, surrender
Awake my soul to see
No more empty Allelujahs
Let it be real, God I'm ready
I come to the Father
All my inhibitions at your feet
I come like a child
I come like a child
Oh, I follow the altar
My life a sacrifice of praise
Rising up
Rising up to bless Your name
Awake my soul, surrender
Awake my soul to see
No more empty Allelujahs
Let it be real, God I'm ready, yeah
I'm ready, God, oh
Let it be real, God I'm ready
Whatever I feel, hold me steady
I will not fear, for You are with me
Let it be real, God, I'm ready, yeah
Oh, let it be real, God I'm ready
Whatever I feel, hold me steady
I will not fear, for You are with me
Let it be real, let it be real
Let it be
Awake my soul, surrender
Awake my soul to see
No more empty Allelujahs
Let it be real, I'm ready
Awake my soul, surrender
Awake my soul to see
No more empty Allelujahs
Let it be real, I'm ready
Let it be real, I'm ready
Let it be real, God, I'm ready
