Sweet Surrender

Thought I was bad and I had to get good
Thought I was smart but I misunderstood
Felt I was weak and I had to get strong
I was sure I was right then I found I was wrong

Thought I was lost and I had to get found
They called me a square so I tried to get round
Felt I was lazy and I had to get busy
Swore I was high but I was just plane dizzy

You see, but
Now I really know
Like I never knew before
The Lord come knockin'
And I finally opened up the door
No doubt about it

Oh, sweet surrender
Oh, sweet surrender
Oh, sweet surrender
Yeah, sweet surrender
Totally, totally

Oh, sweet surrender
You lift me higher
Oh, sweet surrender
Love how You're lovin' me
Oh, sweet surrender
What can I do for You
Oh, sweet surrender

Felt I was bored so I made a switch
Thought I was poor and had to get rich
I was sure I was crazy and had to get sane
It wasn't enough so I changed my name

Thought my image needed a pat on the back
I thought my ego needed a Cadillac
There I was sitting in the drivers seat
I was feelin' low and still incomplete

But I said
Now I really know
No doubt about it
I never knew before
The Lord come a knockin'
And I finally opened up the door

Thank you Lord
Thank you Lord

Oh, sweet surrender
Lift me higher
(Oh, sweet surrender) yeah
(Oh, sweet surrender)
Amazing is Your Love
(Oh, sweet surrender)
You make me happy

(Oh, sweet surrender)
You know I finally stopped my runnin'
(Oh, sweet surrender)
Finally stopped my runnin'
(Oh, sweet surrender)
Don't have to run
(Oh, sweet surrender)
Know exactly who I am

Let it go (oh, sweet surrender)
Amazing is Your love (oh, sweet surrender)
You lift me higher, higher, higher (oh, sweet surrender)
You lift me higher, Lord (oh, sweet surrender)
No doubt about it

(Oh, sweet surrender)
Laying back in Jesus arms
(Oh, sweet surrender)
Oh, sweet surrender
(Oh, sweet surrender)
Let it go, let it go
(Oh, sweet surrender)
Don't work our way to Heaven

Let it go (oh, sweet surrender)
He love you where you are
(Oh, sweet surrender)
Let it go
(Oh, sweet surrender)
That's the Good News people
(Oh, sweet surrender)
Oh, sweet surrender
