[B]
Nobody ever wants to have to make the choice, [F#] your [B] family or your career.
But two years ago that was exactly the choice we had to make.
[E] We realized in order to be the husbands and fathers that [B] we needed to be, we had
to cut way back on how much time we spent on the road.
We might even have to quit.
But as difficult as that might be, we knew we
could not sacrifice our [E] families
on the altar of ministry.
[B]
All my intentions, all my [G#m] obsessions, I want to lay them [E] all down [B] in your hands.
Only your love is vital, though I'm [G#m] not entitled, still you call me [E] your child.
[B] God, you don't need me, but somehow you want me.
Oh, how you love me, somehow [F#] that frees [G#m] me to take my hands off of my life and the way it should [E] go.
[B] Oh, God, you don't need me, but somehow you want me.
Oh, how you love me, somehow [F#] that frees [G#m] me to open my hands up and give you [B] control.
Yeah, I give you control.
I've had plans shattered and broken.
Things I've hoped didn't fall through [E] my hands.
[B] You have plans to redeem and restore me.
You're behind [G#m] and before me.
Oh, help [E] me believe.
[B] God, you don't need me, but somehow you want me.
Oh, how you love me, somehow [F#] that frees me [B] to take my hands off of my life and the way it [E] should go.
[F#] Oh, [B] God, you don't need me, but somehow you want [F#] me.
Oh, how you love me, somehow that frees [G#m] me to open my hands up and give you [E] control.
[F#] Oh, [B] you want me, somehow [F#] you want me.
The king of heaven [G#m] wants me.
[E] This world has lost its grip upon me.
[B] You want me, somehow [F#] you want me.
The king of heaven [G#m] wants me.
[E] So this world has lost its grip on me.
[B] God, you don't need me, but somehow you want [F#] me.
Oh, how you love me, somehow that frees me [G#m] to take my hands off of my life and the [E] way it should go.
So we gave up the [G#m] band, and God gave it back.
But now we're doing it so [F#] much differently.
We're doing it knowing God doesn't need us to be successful.
[B] He just wants us to [E] be surrendered.
Oh, [B] God, you don't need me, but somehow you want me.
Oh, how [F#] you love me, somehow that frees me [G#m] to open my hands up and give you [E] control.
I [F#] give you [B] control.
I give you control.
I [F#] give you [G#m] control.
I give you [E] control.
Oh, [B] you want me, somehow you [F#] want me.
