Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
For you to move
My heart is open and I surrender
Every part of me
Boom
It's an explosion
Come and take over
'Cause I am here for you
My hope is in you
Every day I'm living for you
Give me your power
So I can change this world for you
Show me your ways Lord
Gonna run this race for you
Give me your spirit
Come and set my heart on fire
Your power, Your glory
Come and fill this place
Gonna lift my voice to You
Gonna give You all I am
Gonna live for You alone
'Cause You have set me free
