The Return

[Verse 1]

So many things I've been carrying

Trying to hold on to my own life

While dying on the inside

And all the while You keep

Calling out for me

Promising that there’s more

Than I've ever known before

[Chorus]

I want to have empty hands

So You can fill them up with Your plans

You're worth it all and so much more

Let my life’s return be Your love's reward

[Verse 2]

So here I stand God in surrender

I lift up my hands now in surrender

Return my whole heart in surrender

I surrender

I'm coming back to my Maker

Return to my Maker

Returning my life to the Life Giver, the Life Giver

[Chorus]

I want to have empty hands

So You can fill them up with Your plans

You're worth it all and so much more

Let my life's return be Your love's reward

[Bridge]

Let Your light shine on every shadow

Don't let me be deceived by vain philosophies

Come let Your light shine on every shadow

Don't let me be deceived by vain philosophies

What does it profit a man to gain the whole world

But lose his own soul on vain philosophies

So let Your light shine on every shadow

Don’t let me be deceived by vain philosophies

[Chorus]

I want to have empty hands

So You can fill them up with Your plans

You’re worth it all and so much more

Let my life's return be Your love’s reward
