Lyrics
I have fallen far from grace Descended into the darkness of disgrace Oh will You please rescue me from my fate Will You please grant me entrance through The golden gate Let me tell you why I wanna see the sun on a cloudy day I wanna hear the laughter when the children play I wanna live the real life that was meant for me My eyes are wide open to every thing I see It's abundantly clear now what I need to do I fall down on my knees, I am humble before You I said yeah, yeah I surrender my heart, I surrender my soul I said yeah, yeah I surrender my life, I surrender control I am not but a simple man Only You could possibly understand My ears are open to Your word For I have seen and I have heard Let me tell you what I heard Of the favor and the glory, the power of Your love The riches and the fortune from Heaven above The virtue and the wisdom and all that can be gained The peace and serenity and freedom from pain It's abundantly clear now what I need to do I fall down on my knees, I am humble before You I said yeah, yeah I surrender my heart, I surrender my soul I said yeah, yeah I surrender my life, I surrender control I said yeah, yeah I surrender my heart, I surrender my soul I said yeah, yeah I surrender my life, I surrender control I wanna see the sun on a cloudy day I wanna hear the laughter when the children play I wanna live the real life that was meant for me My eyes are wide open to every thing I see It's abundantly clear now what I need to do I fall down on my knees, I am humble before You I said yeah, yeah I surrender my heart, I surrender my soul I said yeah, yeah I surrender my life, I surrender control
