Ready For You
Kutless Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I am willing to put on my faith in Your plan.
Come and take my life.
Make my soul refreshed in truth now.
I am ready for You.
Take my heart and make me new now.
To come and fill my soul.
Cleanse all of my mind that is not of You.
Break me, teaching me how to find rest in Your hands.
Come and take my life.
Make my soul refreshed in truth now.
I am ready for You.
Take my heart and make me new now.
I am ready for You
To come and fill my soul.
To come and fill my soul.
Whatever it takes,
I'm needing to make Your will be done
And I'm letting go of my control,
For I see what You've done in me.
I am ready for You.
Take my heart and make me new now.
I am ready for You
To come and fill my soul.
