IF YOU SAY
Surrendering to Divine Guidance
Lyrics
I wanna obey you
I desire to follow your commands
Never rationalizing with what you say
Not trying to justify or argue with your instructions
I wanna be free from me
I wish to break free from my own self-centeredness
Tired of doing things in my own way
Fed up with doing things according to my own preferences
I’m looking for direction
Seeking guidance and purpose
Understand I need to hear from you
Acknowledging the importance of hearing from you
I’m tired of making excuses
No longer making excuses for my actions
Lord I wanna do what you say do
Expressing the desire to follow your instructions, Lord
LORD if you say meet me on the water
If you instruct me to meet you on the water
I’ll say Lord here I come
I respond with willingness, saying, "Lord, here I come"
And when you say
Continuing with the theme of divine assurances
That you will never leave me
Embracing the promise that you will never abandon me
I say let your will be done
Submitting to your divine will
If you say
Reiterating the commitment to obey your commands
I wanna have freedom
Desiring freedom in accordance with your teachings
In a way that your word provides
Seeking a liberated life as outlined in your word
Don’t wanna be lost anymore
Expressing a desire to no longer be spiritually lost
I need you Lord to be my guide
Recognizing the need for you, Lord, to be the guide
I’m looking for direction
Reiterating the search for divine direction
Understand I need to hear from you
Stressing the importance of hearing from you
Cause I’m tired of making excuses
No longer offering excuses for behavior
Lord I wanna do what you say do
Expressing the commitment to do as you instruct, Lord
Lord if you say to meet me on the water
If you command me to meet you on the water
I’ll say Lord here I come
I respond with readiness, saying, "Lord, here I come"
And when you say
Reiterating the promise of never being abandoned
You will never leave me
Affirming a surrender to your divine will
I’ll say let your will be done
If you declare that you will never leave me
If you say
Committing to let your will be done in my life
I’m looking for direction
Continuing the search for divine guidance
Understand I need to hear from you
Emphasizing the need to hear from you
I’m tired of making excuses
No longer making excuses for actions
Lord I wanna do what you say do
Reiterating the commitment to follow your instructions
Lord if you say meet me on the water
If you instruct me to meet you on the water
I’ll say Lord here I come
I express readiness, saying, "Lord, here I come"
If you say
Reiterating the assurance of never being abandoned
You will never leave me
Affirming a surrender to your divine will
I’ll say let your will be done in me Lord
If you declare that you will never leave me
If you say
Committing to let your will be done in my life
Meet me
If you instruct to meet you
I’ll say Lord here I
I respond with readiness, saying, "Lord, here I come"
Here I come Lord Jesus
Affirming the willingness to come to you, Lord Jesus
If you say
Reiterating the commitment to obey your commands
Oh I’m hanging on every word that you say Lord
Hanging on to every word you say, Lord
If you say, if you say, if you say
Repetition emphasizing the importance of your words
If you say
Reiterating the significance of obeying your instructions
