Desperate, grasping with a clenched fist
I try to hold my own life in my own hand
Frustration sets in, though I had this
Failure is the one thing that I just can't stand

Oh, You remding me that taking care of me
Has never been in my job description
Oh, now I'm finding you want to fix it all
You're just waiting for permission

I'm giving up, I'm letting go
Of everything that I've held onto
I'm giving up, I'm letting go
Of all the things that I've let hold me
For so long (for so long) Lord I know
I need to give You full control
Help me give up, and let go

I want to trust You with my whole heart
Not lean on what I think I understand
And even when I can't see
Jesus, help me still to believe
You're unveiling an unfailing plan

And oh, sometimes the old me creeps back in
And oh, the only thing I know to do is give it all to You again

Help me give up, help me let go
