“I want so badly to do everything myself, to fix it all. The American dream is a self-made man, but it’s actually a pretty warped version of strength. See, the more I live, the more I realize that asking for help, relying on loved ones, surrendering my will to the God that made the stars, and yet somehow knows my name, see, that’s true strength. When we can’t understand the path that we’re walking, when we want to hold on so tight it makes us feel comfortable but only wastes us away, in those moments we can declare, not my will, but Yours be done. Trusting God with everything is a place of surrender and sacrifice, but it’s the place I long to be.”
– Dave Frey, Sidewalk Prophets

Father, Let It Be (Lyrics)
I am a well
Barren and dry
Nothing left but emptiness on the inside
I am a rope
Burnt at both ends
Getting shorter every day and wearing thin
If there’s a purpose for the struggle that I’m in
Father, let it be
Help me to believe
Jesus tell me stories of times you felt like me
Spirit, let me see
The forest through the trees
Help me understand these are the plans you have for me
If it’s your will, God, let it be
Here is my soul
Desperate for you
Praying the promises you made were for me too
Here is my heart
Torn but alive
Beating, searching for someone to hear my cries
Father, let it be
Help me to believe
Jesus tell me stories of times you felt like me
Spirit, let me see
The forest through the trees
Help me understand these are the plans you have for me
If it’s your will, God, let it be
Oh, I can feel you moving
I hear you calling me (calling me)
“Fall deeper into my arms”
That’s where I long to be (where I long)
That’s where I long to be
You made the stars
You call me by name
When I’m weary, You still hear me, so I’ll pray
Father, let it be
Help me to believe
Jesus tell me stories of times you felt like me
Spirit, let me see
The forest through the trees
Help me understand these are the plans you have for me
Give me patience and the strength to let you lead
If it’s your will, God, let it be
Oh Father, let it be
Father, let it be, yeah
Oh Father, let it be
