Lyrics

Verse 1

I lived by guilt and called it grace

I lived in doubt and called it faith

I lived in fear and called it love

But this is not enough

Verse 2

I walked in darkness, called it light

I died a death that I called life

I walked alone and called it trust

But this is not enough

Chorus

Jesus, save me

Jesus, make me Yours

Free us from ourselves to fight no more

Fight no more

Verse 3

I lived with shame and called it Your Spirit

I walked in pride and called it wise

I worshiped self and called it love

But this is not enough

Chorus

Jesus, save me

Jesus, make me Yours

Free us from ourselves to fight no more

Fight no more

Bridge

Over mountains, valleys, rivers, oceans

Words and memories, all emotions

You have brought me, I have come

But You’re not done

Through religion, disappointment, hatred

Blinded eyes now see salvation

I am finished holding on

Faith is letting go

Of the past, of my best, of my holiness

Of the future I picture, I lay to rest

No one else but myself will have to stand

Before the Savior, I surrender all

Chorus

Jesus, save me

Jesus, make me Yours

Free us from ourselves to fight no more

Fight no more

Verse 4

My hope is built on nothing less

Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness

I do not dare to trust myself

You are enough

You are enough

You are enough
