I've been holding on so tight
Look at these knuckles they've gone white
From fighting for who I want to be
I'm just trying to find security

You say let it go
You say let it go
You say life is waiting for the one's who lose control
You say you will be everything I need
You say if I lose my life it's then I'll find my soul
You say let it go

Well it's hard enough to hear
Harder still to move beyond this fear
We know there's nothing I can bring
So tell me what do you want from me?

You say let it go
You say let it go
You say life is waiting for the one's who lose control
You say you will be everything I need
You say if I lose my life it's then I'll find my soul
You say let it go

What do I love what do I hate
What will I lose what will I gain
How do I save my soul?

What if I bend what if I break
What will it cost what will it take
For you to save my soul

You say let it go
You say let it go
You say life is waiting for the one's who lose control
You say you will be everything I need
You say if I lose my life it's then I'll find my soul
You say let it go



Behind the Song:
“The Bible says some really strange things and one of those things is when Jesus basically appeals to the people and he says, ‘You don’t want to lose your life, do you? Well lose it and then you’ll find it.’ It’s a very strange sort of argument that Jesus makes, but ‘Let It Go’ is a song about struggling to let go of being the captain of my own ship, of my own faith, which I think we all struggle with. A line in the chorus says, ‘Life is waiting for the ones who lose control.’ It’s a call to say, ‘Man, if only I would really trust God, I would have far fewer aneurisms and stress than I put on myself.’” - Mike Donehey (Tenth Avenue North)
