Lyrics

[Verse 1]

It’s hard for me to believe

That I’ve got nothing to prove

I thought this dirt on my hands

Was gonna keep me from You

[Verse 2]

I fall as much as I rise

Feels like my walk is a crawl

When I’m alone in the night

Won't You leave the light on?

[Chorus]

'Cause I've been reckless with my heart

Now I’m falling apart

I don't wanna be the same

I need You to be the change

I surrender all I am

I know I’ve made mistakes

But the past will wash away

Oh, do whatever it takes

[Verse 3]

Thought I was never enough

Hurt has a way of its own

But I can lift up my eyes

And know that You’re in control

[Verse 4]

Sometimes I won’t get it right

I’m gonna stumble and fall

When I'm alone in the night

I know You'll leave the light on

[Chorus]

'Cause I've been reckless with my heart

Now I'm falling apart

I don't wanna be the same

I need You to be the change

I surrender all I am

I know I've made mistakes

But the past will wash away

Oh, do whatever it takes

[Bridge]

Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh

[Bridge]

Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh, oh, oh-oh

Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh

Whatever it takes

[Bridge]

Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh

Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh

I know you will

[Chorus]

'Cause I've been reckless with my heart

Now I'm falling apart

I don't wanna be the same

I need You to be the change

I surrender all I am

I know I've made mistakes

But the past will wash away

Oh, do whatever it takes
