Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't tired of trying

And now I am down to my last excuse

So here I am waiting for You

 

I take the wheel and everything starts falling apart

I start to wander off the road that leads to Your heart

Still there You are

 

In the broken, when I'm losing my way

When I'm lost in all the doubt and the shame

You remain, You remain

 

Sweet surrender to know that I am Yours forever

And that You will never leave me alone

You'll come running when I turn for home

 

I'll take the wheel and everything starts falling apart

I start to wander off the road that leads to Your heart

Still there You are

 

In the broken, when I'm losing my way

When I'm lost in all the doubt and the shame

You remain

Though the time keeps on ticking away

When the fire is gone and hope is starting to fade

You remain, You remain

 

I've tried to do this now for so long on my own

You'd think I'd figure this whole thing out somehow

But just when I think I can't fall faster or further away

I turn around and there You are
