Begin Again Songtext
von Jen Allen

I′ve chased after things that I wanted
Run away with dreams that I shouldn't
It led me so far away from You
I prayed for my will to be done
Made my plans as if I was the one
Who knew what was best for me

But now I lay it down, I′m coming clean
God, I surrender my life, have Your way with me


Strayed from the path of the calling
The one that was always meant for me
And ran so far from Your perfect plan
My heart has been restlessly wandering in a far country
And I feel so unworthy to be called Your son
Or to come home again

So I lay it down, I'm coming clean
Here I surrender my life, have Your way with me
And I'm running home, just as I am
From the ashes I rise with tears in my eyes and begin again
Begin again, yeah, oh

I prayed to the sky until we both bled
I hoped ′til the hurt was all that I knew
Then I climbed to the moon, fell back to the ground
I′m still burned out


So I lay it down, down at Your throne
God, I surrender my wandering heart, it's Yours alone
And I′m running home, just as I am
From the ashes I rise with tears in my eyes and begin again
Is it too late to begin again? Again
