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
