Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

I spent so long living in the dark

Living in the dark

I ran so fast until it fell apart

Until it fell apart

And now I?m on my knees


All my life

I surrender

I throw my hands up

The war is over

I am falling

On the altar

I throw my hands up

I need a savior

Oh I oh I oh I

I turn it over

I turn it over


I can?t go back

Done living in the past

Done living in the past

You know this man

Still you take me as I am 

Oh you take me as I am 


All my life

I surrender

I throw my hands up

The war is over

I am falling

On the altar

I throw my hands up

I need a savior

Oh I oh I oh I

I turn it over

I turn it over


I?m letting go of my pain

All of my sin and my shame

Your word has washed it away

All of my doubt and my fear

I leave it all with you here

Where I am covered by grace


I?m letting go of my pain

All of my sin and my shame

Your word has washed it away

All of my doubt and my fear

I leave it all with you here

Where I am covered by grace


And now I?m on my knees


All my life 

I surrender

I throw my hands up

The war is over

I am falling

On the altar

I throw my hands up

I need a savior

Oh I oh I oh I

I turn it over

I turn it over
