Take my life I lay it down
At the cross where I am found
All I have I give to You oh God
Take my hands and make them clean
Keep my heart in purity
That I may walk in all You have for me
Ohwowowo..
Oh here I stand, arms open wide
Ohwowowo..
Oh I am Yours, and You are mine
Take my moments and my days
Let each breath that I take
Be ever only for You oh God
Ohwowoah..wowoah
Ohwowoah..wowoah
My whole life is Yours
I give it all
Surrendered to Your name
And forever I will pray
Have Your way, have Your way
