VERSE 1
I have wrestled in the darkness of this lonely pilgrim land
Raising strong and mighty fortresses that I alone command
But these castles I've constructed by the strength of my own hand
Are just temporary kingdoms on foundations made of sand
In the middle of the battle I believe I've finally found
I'll never know the thrill of victory 'til I'm willing to lay down
All my weapons of defense and earthly strategies of war
So I'm laying down my arms and running helplessly to Yours
I surrender all my silent hopes and dreams
Though the price to follow cost me everything
I surrender all my human soul desires
If sacrifice requires
That all my kingdoms fall
I surrender all
I surrender all)
VERSE 2
Everything I am, all I've done, and all I've known
Now belongs to You, the life I live is not my own
Just as Abraham laid Isaac on the sacrificial fire
If all I have is all that You desire
I surrender all
Short Chorus with key change
I surrender all my human soul desires
If sacrifice requires that all my kingdoms fall
That all my kingdoms fall
That all my kingdoms fall
I surrender all
