I stand in awe of You And everything You’ve done for me You speak Your words into my life And where You are is where I want to be
I stand before You, Lord Humbled by the love You give away A widow’s mite, my will and pride It’s all I have to offer anyway
I’m holding on to Your love I’m letting go of myself I’ll say so long to everything else
I just want to be in Your arms I just want to be in Your arms Moving ever closer to Your heart To Your heart

Behind the Song:'If you imagine holding your life in your hand and your hand is in the shape of a fist you can not receive anything else because your fist is closed, but if your are holding your life in your hands and they're open, then you are free to receive something else and that is really what that song is about. The song is about the process of standing before God in complete transparency and realizing what I have to give is barely a comparison of what he has given me and as I hold on the love of God, I have to let go of everything else. If I want to hold on to Jesus even more then I just have to let go.' - Matt Maher
