Jesus is my hope, my redemption from who I know I would be without Him. He paid for my sin by dying on the cross, that I could walk in freedom and new life. This song is a response to that new life, that only Jesus can give. I pray that God stirs in your heart, that you would give him everything, lay your life down at His feet and allow Him to heal, restore and show you His Heart.
lyrics
Take my life Lord
And the way I have it planned
Take my weary feet
And my feeble hands
Take my eyes
And fix em' upon You
Take my ears Lord
I give them to You
Cause I'm giving it all Jesus
I'm giving it all to You
Yes I'm giving it all Jesus
I'm giving it all to You
You can have my job Lord
You can have my fancy car
You can have my wallet
And my credit card
You can have my dreams
I lay them all down
You can take my world
And turn it upside down
Cause I'm giving it all Jesus
I'm giving it all to You
Yes I'm giving it all Jesus
I'm giving it all to You
Yes yes I'm giving it all Jesus
I'm giving it all to You (4)
So here I am Lord
I lay my life down
No more me Lord
Its Yours now
So lead me in Your Spirit
Lead me in Your truth
Keep my eyes just
Fixed upon You
