So tell me what do you want from me?

Let It Go - Tenth Avenue North

I've been holding on so tight
Look at these knuckles
They've gone white
I'm fighting for who I wanna be
I'm just trying to find security

But You say let it go, You say let it go
You say life is waiting for the ones who lose control
You say you will be everything I need
You say if I lose my life it's then I'll find my soul
You say let it go


Well, it's hard enough to hear
Harder still to move beyond this fear
We know there's nothing I can bring
So tell me what do you want from me?

But You say let it go, You say let it go
You say life is waiting for the ones who lose control
You say You will be everything I need
You say if I lose my life it's then I'll find my soul
You say let it go, You say let it go

What do I love?
What do I hate?
What will I lose?
What will I gain?

How do I save my soul?
What if I bend?
What if I break?
What will it cost?
What will it take?
For you to save my soul


You say let it go, You say let it go
You say life is waiting for the ones who lose control
You say You will be everything I need
You say if I lose my life it's then I'll find my soul

You say let it go, You say let it go
You say life is waiting for the ones who lose control
You say you will be, everything I need
You say if I lose my life it's then I'll find my soul
You say let it go, You say let it go

In the way my life is lived

Everytime I Breathe - Big Daddy Weave

I am sure all of heaven's heard me cry
As I tell You all the reasons why
This life is just too hard

But day by day, without fail
I'm finding everything I need
And everything that You are to me

Every time I breathe You seem a little bit closer
I never want to leave, I want to stay in Your warm embrace
Oh, basking in the glory shining from Your face
And every time I get another glimpse of Your heart
I realize it's true
That You are so marvelous God
And I am so in love with You

Now, how could I, after knowing One so great
Respond to You in any way
That's less than all I have to give
But by Your grace I want to love You, not with what I say
But everyday, in the way my life is lived


Every time I breathe You seem a little bit closer
I never want to leave, I want to stay in Your warm embrace
Oh, basking in the glory shining from Your face
And every time I get another glimpse of Your heart
I realize it's true
That You are so marvelous God
And I am so in love with You

Wrapped in Your mercy I want to live and never leave
I am held by how humble
Yet overwhelmed by Your majesty
Captured by grace and now I'm finding I am free
You are marvelous God, and knowing You is everything
