Let Go
DeWayne Woods Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There was so much on my mind
Searching for that peace
But the peace I could not find
So then I knelt down to pray
Praying help me please
Then He said you don't have to cry
'Cause I'll supply all your needs
As soon as I stop worrying (soon as I stopped worrying)
Worrying how the story ends (When I let go)
I let go (And I let) and I let God (let Him have)
(Let Him Have) Let God have His way
(That's when things) That's when things start happening
I'll stop looking at back then
I let go and I'll let God have His way
There so much going on
Sometimes I can't find my way
And often times I struggle
Struggle from day to day
I have to realize that it's not my battle
It's not my battle to fight
I have to know if I to put it in His hands
That everything will be alright
As soon as I stop worrying (soon as I stopped worrying)
Worrying how the story ends (When I let go)
I let go (And I let) and I let God (let Him have)
(Let Him Have) Let God have His way
(That's when things) That's when things start happening
I'll stop looking at back then
I let go and I'll let God have His way
Let go
Let God, let God, let God, let God, let God
My brother let go
And let God
My sister you can't handle it

Oh let go
And let God, and let God, and let God
Let go

The song begins with the singer feeling restless and unable to find peace, despite their efforts to pray and seek guidance. However, they eventually realize that they don't have to carry their burdens alone and that God will provide for all their needs.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the message of surrendering one's worries and letting God guide the way. The singer comes to a realization that as soon as they stop worrying and relinquish control, they allow God to have His way, and that's when things begin to happen miraculously. The second verse reinforces this idea, and the singer acknowledges that they cannot fight their battles alone and that they are not responsible for the outcome of every situation. The song comes to a conclusion with an encouragement to let go and let God take over our lives.
Overall, the message of the song is about surrendering control and trusting in God's plan for our lives. It highlights the importance of letting go of self-reliance and embracing faith in God. By doing so, we can find peace and reassurance even in the midst of difficult circumstances.
