I don't like to admit. When I'm wrong and need gifts. Of forgiveness instead of applause. I was dying to prove to myself. I could make it alone. It took years to confess. That your love was the best. At unraveling all of my pride. Had to laugh at myself. When I realized that you were my home. Give me the strength to let go. Give me the strength to surrender. Give me the strength to stop holding on. I've been holding on so long. Give me the strength to let go. And show me the way to come home. Yeah I'm stubborn and bold. But sometimes it gets old. Fighting voices inside of my brain. I was trying to pretend I was fine. When inside it was war. With the stumbling beat. Of my heart and my feet. And the faults of my failure and pain. To think all of this time. I had wings that were ready to soar. Give me the strength to let go. Oh love light the way home. Light up my soul. I choose mercy instead of control. My life is on loan. Forgive and let go. I embrace a belief I don't know. What a beautiful sound. To lay your life down. Your forgiveness is where I am found. Here in your arms. I finally let down. I am lightning and you are the ground. Give me the strength to let go. I am lightning and you are the ground
