So don't go wastin' your time
Holding on to your life
There are treasures that i have possessed
Meant the world to me
But they never filled the emptiness
I needed something more than these
In the middle of my wilderness
God reached down to me
When i let go to his tenderness
I found this life was more than i ever dreamed

So don't go wastin' your time
Holding on to your life
Just lay it all on the line
Gotta make up your mind
There can be no more compromise
Just lay it all on the line

It's a matter of surrendering
Every hidden fear
And by letting go of everything
Jesus will meet you there
In the heart of every one of us
There's a call to faith
Even though we'll never measure up
That's why the savior, that's why the savior came

Gone are the days of holding on
This is the time to surrender
Now is the moment you've got to let it go
Just let it go
Don't go wastin' your time
Gotta make up your mind
There can be no more compromise
Just lay it all on the line
