All of Me
Ashes Remain Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I am a mess of contradictions
I am a doubter who believes
And I try to hide the failures that I don't want you to see
But you tell me that you love me, more than I could understand
And you still call me, to come as I am!

You want my faith
You want my doubt
The things I don't wanna talk about
All that's broken, healed, and somewhere in between
I will lay it at your feet, and I won't hold back anything
'Cause what you want is all, what you want is all of me

You know every single heart beat
You know every breath I breathe
All the sin that held me captive, before mercy set me free
You are the God of new beginings, you will never walk away
Your arms are open, so I won't be afraid!

To bring my faith
To bring my doubt
The things I don't wanna talk about
All that's broken, healed, and somewhere in between
I will lay it at your feet, and I won't hold back anything
'Cause what you want is all, what you want is all of me

Everything I am, placed inside your hands
Everything I knew before, every moment God is yours
All of me!

You want my faith
You want my doubt
The things I don't wanna talk about
All that's broken, healed, and somewhere in between
Broken, healed, and somewhere in between

You want my faith
You want my doubt
The things I don't wanna talk about
All that's broken, healed, and somewhere in between
I will lay it at your feet, and I won't hold back anything
'Cause what you want is all, what you want is all of me





All of me!

these are the type of songs people should be listening to. Ashes Remain should get more fame. They’re really amazing and should feel proud they’re saving lives out there with their songs. 💖
