Lay It Down
Nobody ever thinks
They'll be the one who sinks
Instead of walking
When they step out of the boat
It's a leap of faith
Not everybody makes
It on their best tries
But here I am again
In over my head
Drowning underneath
The weight of my pride
Finally realized
I'm not gonna make it on my own
Hallelujah
I am broken
I'm broken wide open
Hallelujah
I am emptied out (yeah)
Hallelujah
I am nothing
Thank you for being my everything
I'm ready now
To lay it down
I'm done
Keeping score
Of all the times I've fallen short
I'm falling
To the foot of the cross
Yeah you paid the cost
To lift me up out of my shame
Yeah yeah
Hallelujah
I am broken
I'm broken wide open
Hallelujah
I am emptied out (yeah)
Hallelujah
I am nothing
Thank you for being my everything
I'm ready now
To lay it down
All my burdens all my cares
All my fears now
All my past
All my present all my future now
My wife and kids
And where we live in our small town
I'm laying it down
I've come alive
Brought to life
Inside and out
I'm a new creation
Yeah that's what I'm all about
With all my heart
All my soul
I will sing it loud
Yeah I'm laying it down
Hallelujah
I am broken
I'm broken wide open
Hallelujah
I am emptied out (yeah)
Hallelujah
I am nothing
Thank you for being my everything
I'm ready now
I'm laying it down
Down down down down
At the foot of the cross
I'm laying it down
Down down down down
I once was lost
But now I'm found
Found found found found
Oh thank you Jesus
I am found
Found found found found
I'm laying it down
Down down down down
I'm laying it down
Down down down down
They'll be the one who sinks
Instead of walking
When they step out of the boat
It's a leap of faith
Not everybody makes
It on their best tries
But here I am again
In over my head
Drowning underneath
The weight of my pride
Finally realized
I'm not gonna make it on my own
Hallelujah
I am broken
I'm broken wide open
Hallelujah
I am emptied out (yeah)
Hallelujah
I am nothing
Thank you for being my everything
I'm ready now
To lay it down
I'm done
Keeping score
Of all the times I've fallen short
I'm falling
To the foot of the cross
Yeah you paid the cost
To lift me up out of my shame
Yeah yeah
Hallelujah
I am broken
I'm broken wide open
Hallelujah

Found found found found
Oh thank you Jesus
I am found
Found found found found
I'm laying it down
Down down down down
I'm laying it down
Down down down down
