There’s a me that I don’t really like, A me that says I’m in control til the day that I die. And I don’t know why I push I pull I fight I fall, I end up crawling back to that place where I figure it out; That I, that I, that I…
I’m second to one redeemer, the way, the light. I’m second to One, The Savior, No compromise. I’m laying everything at the foot of the cross, my pride, my life, my all. I Am Second to One and He is second to NONE.
There’s a change when I swallow my pride and I surrender. There’s a peace when I open my eyes, cuz I remember, to live’s to die, to fall’s to rise. To kneel’s to find the Savior, here I am and I’ve figured it out Tonight tonight tonight…
He said “You come alive when you lose your life” so I lay it down Yeah I surrender all.
