Just A Song...

these are the lyrics to the most meaningful song to me in the world. my best friend played it for me several years ago and it has been my prayer ever since. i have been through a lot since i first heard these words, but they have never failed to be a comfort to me. this song is by a band called The Waiting. the music to this song is beautiful and i will try to get the whole song on here as soon as i can. i hope these words can mean as much to you as they have to me.
Thank you Aaron...


If i raise my hands just lift the shade
Will i reveal a sky heavy and gray?
Will last night be a memory sweetly fading?
How i hate a morning starting out this way
On these lonely raging mornings i would whip you if i could
But Your on the mighty side of strong and the perfect side of good
If i raise my hands will you grab me by the wrists
And will you try to pull me from the fray?
And even if my fingers join together into fists
Will you hold me firmly anyway?'
because i would try to escape you but for everyday i'm sure
That You're on the huge side of big and the holy side of pure
Ok, hear what i say
As i raise my hands and surrender today
Ok, here i will stay
Hands in the air, singing have Thine own way
If i raise my hands so weak and thin and frail
Will you reveal the light of mercy in your eyes?
If i cry to you faintly will my feeble whispers fail
Or will it find its way to a reply?'
Cause now that i'm exhausted i think i'm ready to admit
That i've spent all my resistance on someone i can't resist
Ok, hear what i say
As i raise my hands, in surrender today
Ok, here i will stay
Hands in the air singing have Thine own way
Light from my window sill, make my way to the door
i hang my head and still i know your wanting more
Over the threshold now, i move across the yard
Although my will allows, my every step is hard
Now in the garden i carve out six feet of space
There make my will comply lie down upon my face
Been toe to toe to long, i'm tired of fighting You
i see You were to strong, 'cause i am black and blue
But now i understand that losers do to win
How every dying man is sure to rise again
So i rasie my left hand one
i raise my right hand two
Under the morning sun, my spirit cries to you
OK, hear what i say
hands in the air in surrender today
OK, here i will stay
hands in the air singing have Thine own way
have Thine own way
have Thine own way
