Lyrics
I surrender
Gwenevered
1-23-08
When you feel like givin up
And throwin in the towel
There just doesn?t seem to be
An easy way out
And every move that you make
Seems to be another mistake
And climbing mountain highs
Every single day after day
And so I give up
I don?t want to fight anymore
I can?t control my pathway
So I discern before
Chorus:
And so I surrender
My heart to you
Only you can
See me through
I praise you for
Everything
You are my Lord
My love, my strength
Sometimes life can get, you down
Really way down
But I look to you
You are profound
We don?t understand it all
The war that goes on
But you have already conquered
The earth that we?re here upon
Bridge:
And so I will praise you
In everything
You are always there
Perfectly present, reigning
repeat
Chorus:
And so I surrender
My heart to you
Only you can
See me through
I praise you for
Everything
You are my Lord
My love, my strength
repeat
