Lay It Down

Verse 1
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

Pre-Chorus
In over my head, drowning underneath the weight of my pride
Finally realized I’m not gonna make it on my own

Chorus
Hallelujah, I am broken
I’m broken wide open
Hallelujah, I am emptied out, yeah-eah-eahh
Hallelujah, I am nothing
Thank You for being my everything
I’m ready now
To lay it down

Verse 2
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-eah-eahh

Chorus
Hallelujah, I am broken
I’m broken wide open
Hallelujah, I am emptied out, yeah-eah-eahh
Hallelujah, I am nothing
Thank You for being my everything
I’m ready now
To lay it down

Bridge
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’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 lou-oud
Yeah, I’m laying it down

Chorus
Hallelujah, I am broken
I’m broken wide open
Hallelujah, I am emptied out, yeahhhh!
Hallelujah, I am nothing
Thank You for being my everything
I’m ready now

Post-Chorus
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

Outro
I’m laying it down
Down, down, down down
I’m laying it down
Down, down, down, down
