Take Me Away

Verse 1
I don’t want to fight anymore
I don’t want to settle the score
Just want to live my whole life in surrender to You
Verse 2
I’m laying down all of my pride
All that I hold deep inside
Just want to live my whole life in surrender to You
Chorus
Take me away, take me away, I wanna be where You are
Take me away, take me away, I wanna be where You are
Verse 3
I pray that my worship is true
There’s nothing I hold back from You
Just want to live my whole life in surrender to You
Verse 4
I’m laying down all of my pride
All that I hold deep inside
Just want to live my whole life in surrender to You
Bridge
And the cry of my heart is to know You
The cry of my heart is to hear Your voice
To lay down my life in surrender take me away take me away
Alternate Chorus
Above the atmosphere, I want to go from here
To find the tracings of Your heart
Oh God Who knows my name, Who sees all my pain
Oh won’t You take me where You are
