Letting Go
Steffany Frizzell Gretzinger Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You've brought me to the end of myself
This has been the longest road
Just when my hallelujah was tired
You gave me a new song

I'm letting go
I'm letting go
I'm letting go
Falling into You

I confess I still get scared sometimes
But perfect love comes rushing in




And all the lies screamed inside go silent
The moment You begin

Overall Meaning

These lyrics from Steffany Frizzell Gretzinger's song Letting Go represent her journey through life and spirituality. The first line, "You've brought me to the end of myself," is a powerful acknowledgment of hitting rock bottom. It is a moment of surrender where Gretzinger admits that she can go no further alone. This sentiment is echoed in the following line, "This has been the longest road," revealing that the struggle has been arduous and ongoing.


Despite this, in the third line, Gretzinger recognizes that even when she is at her lowest, God has a way of refreshing her spirit with a "new song." This phrase is an allusion to the Bible where Psalm 40:3 says, "He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God." Gretzinger is saying that God always finds a way to remind her that He is present, and she can let go of her burdens.


The chorus then reiterates the concept of release with the repetition of "I'm letting go, falling into you." This action demonstrates that Gretzinger is no longer trying to control her life but is relying on her faith to lead her. The final line, which concludes the verse, "But perfect love comes rushing in, and all the lies screamed inside go silent, the moment You begin," reaffirms that the love of God dispels fear and provides strength. Thus, Gretzinger's story is one of hope and vulnerability, a testament to the healing power that comes from relying on a higher being.

"The Life-Light was the real thing:

Every person entering Life he brings into Light.

He was in the world, the world was there through him, and yet the world didn’t even notice.


He came to his own people, but they didn’t want him.

But whoever did want him, who believed he was who he claimed and would do what he said, He made to be their true selves, their child-of-God selves.


These are the God-begotten, not blood-begotten, not flesh-begotten, not sex-begotten."


John 1:9‭-‬13

You've brought me to the end of myself
And this has been the longest road
Just when my hallelujah was tired
You gave me a new song

I'm letting go, I'm letting go
I'm letting go, and falling into You

I confess I still get scared sometimes
But perfect love comes rushing in
And all the lies that screamed inside
Go silent
The moment You begin

You remind me of things forgotten
You unwind me until I'm totally undone
And with Your arms around me
Fear was no match for Your love
Now You've won me

Today I buried my best friend, my pillar. Someone who understood me more then I understand myself.
I don’t know how I’m going to cope😓.

I NEED STRENGTH. I MISS HIM SO MUCH IT HURTS.

ONLY JESUS CAN SEE THROUGH MY PAIN AND I TRUST HIM FOR MY HEALING.
PLEASE FATHER🙏🏽😭.

I will forever miss you❤️

And this has been the longest road
Just when my hallelujah was tired
You gave me a new song

Lourena

Você me trouxe até o fim de mim mesmo
Tem sido a mais longa estrada
Exatamente quando meu aleluia esta cansado
Você me deu uma nova canção

Eu vou caindo
Eu vou caindo
Eu vou caindo
Caindo dentro de você

Confesso que ainda fico com medo às vezes
Mas o amor perfeito vem correndo pra mim
E todas as mentiras gritavam lá dentro, silenciam
No momento em que você começa

Eu vou caindo
Eu vou caindo
Eu vou caindo
Caindo dentro de você

Você me faz lembrar
Das coisas esquecidas
Você desenrola-me
Até que eu esteja totalmente desfeita
E com Seus braços em volta de mim
O medo não é páreo para o seu Amor
Agora você me ganhou

E se eu vivesse mil vidas
E escreve-se uma música para cada dia
Ainda assim, não haveria maneira de dizer
Como você me amou

Oh, como você me ama

E é assim que você me ganhou

Tradução desse louvor: Vou caindo

Você me trouxe até o fim de mim mesmo
Tem sido a mais longa estrada
Exatamente quando meu aleluia esta cansado
Você me deu uma nova canção

Eu vou caindo
Eu vou caindo
Eu vou caindo
Caindo dentro de você

Confesso que ainda fico com medo às vezes
Mas o amor perfeito vem correndo pra mim
E todas as mentiras gritavam lá dentro, silenciam
No momento em que você começa

Eu vou caindo
Eu vou caindo
Eu vou caindo
Caindo dentro de você

Você me faz lembrar
Das coisas esquecidas
Você desenrola-me
Até que eu esteja totalmente desfeita
E com Seus braços em volta de mim
O medo não é páreo para o seu Amor
Agora você me ganhou

E se eu vivesse mil vidas
E escreve-se uma música para cada dia
Ainda assim, não haveria maneira de dizer
Como você me amou

Oh, como você me ama

E é assim que você me ganhou
