I love songs that get to the point and allow me to speak candidly and communicate directly with the heart of God. "All for You" is that kind of song for me. In my experience with God through the waxing and waning of mountains and valleys there is a place I often encounter where everything within me screams for release. I KNOW that God is asking me to hand over control but the pride in me does everything in its power to see that I don't. I wanted to pen a song that plainly spoke to that place. he simple words of the Chorus were what floated out as I was trying to articulate to God what I was feeling..."It's all for You...I'm letting go" it's a fascinating thing to hear the subtle musical influences laced throughout your music.
Nothing compares to
Life I have in You
Nothing of this world satisfies
So, I want to let go
I want to let You know
All that I have to give is Yours
Here I am
As gold to the fire
I will surrender to Your hand
To this place
Lord, I have come ready for Your touch
It's all for You
It's all for You
I'm letting go
I'm letting go
What is it in me
That hangs on for so long
Why do I fight the tears that come?
I work so hard to
Keep in control when
All that I want is to let go
I'll take this life
And lay it down
I'm letting go
I'm letting go
My hopes and dreams
Here at Your feet
I'm letting go
I'm letting go
And I am ready for Your life
And I am ready for You now
