Take The Reins

I spent time with my knuckles white
From squeezing a grip around this life
And trying to climb the years just like a piece of rope

And I've got blistered hands I've been grinding my teeth
Holding on to what I thought was the dream
It turns out, it's a play and now the curtain's closed
But I'm finding, I'm fine with letting go

Like oh, God, take the reins
'Cause I don't know how to do this thing, no, no (oh, oh, oh, oh)
And oh, God let Your kingdom come
When I try to build mine it just comes undone, I know (oh, oh, oh, oh)
And I'm just tired and through standing in the way
Oh, God take the reins (oh, oh, oh, oh)

Only now I'm starting to see
That this whole thing is bigger than me
And somehow that makes life just a little more free
But I'm finding my place, and it ain't in the lead

Like oh, God, take the reins
'Cause I don't know how to do this thing, no, no (oh, oh)
No, no (oh, oh)
And oh, God let Your kingdom come
When I try to build mine it just comes undone, I know (oh, oh)
I know (oh, oh)
And I'm just tired and through standing in the way
Oh, God, take the reins (oh, oh, oh, oh)

One thing I need to remember
Is my life begins when I surrender, yeah
One thing I need to remember
Is my life began when I surrendered

Oh, God, take the reins
'Cause I don't know how to do this thing, no, no (oh, oh)
No, no (oh, oh)
And oh, God let Your kingdom come
When I try to build mine it just comes undone, I know (oh, oh)
I know, yeah, I know (oh, oh)
And I'm just tired and through standing in the way
Oh, God, take the reins

(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
