Letting Go, Trusting You
Everything feels like it’s right,
There’s no reason to take flight,
Yet inside, it’s not quite right,
Still feels heavy, not quite light.
I said “yes,” or so I thought,
But something keeps me standing still.
I want to give You all I’ve got,
Yet part of me resists Your will.
You see me trying to let go,
But there is still something below,
A weight I can’t quite shake,
A chain I have yet to break.
Forgive me, Lord,
For holding back my soul.
This fear is like a rope;
It is tied tight, out of control.
But nothing is too hard for You.
In weakness, You make me strong.
In sadness, You bring comfort;
In You, I belong.
So I’ll release this lingering fear,
Though the path ahead’s not always clear.
Your plans remain above my own;
In You, my trust is fully grown.
You provide, sustain, and heal.
You fill the gaps I try to conceal.
You called, You chose despite my doubt;
Who am I to shut You out?
So here I am; I trust You, for real.
Lead me, Lord, and shape my will.
I long for more of only You,
More of You in all I do.
