Jesus if I'm honest
I'm often overcome with this temptation
Of building my own kingdom
And focusing on my own preservation
That's exactly what You told me not to do
When you said to watch and pray and wait for You
Nevertheless, not my will but Yours
Father every single breath is in Your hands
So I can rest, my future is secure
Jesus, I surrender to Your plans
Nevertheless
I need You Holy Spirit
Deep within my heart lies this confession
That I've taken it for granted
The power of the cross and resurrection
That's exactly what You told me not to do
When you said to watch and pray and wait for You
Nevertheless, not my will but Yours
Father every single breath is in Your hands
So I can rest, my future is secure
Jesus, I surrender to Your plans
Nevertheless
I'm watching with my eyes up to the heavens
I'm praying, oh let Your will be done
While I'm waiting I'll keep on proclaiming
Let Your kingdom come
Oh, let Your kingdom come
I'm watching with my eyes up to the heavens
I'm praying, oh let Your will be done
While I'm waiting I'll keep on proclaiming
Let Your kingdom come
Oh, let Your kingdom come
I'm watching with my eyes up to the heavens
I'm praying, oh let Your will be done
While I'm waiting I'll keep on proclaiming
Let Your kingdom come
Nevertheless, not my will but Yours
Father every single breath is in Your hands
So I can rest, my future is secure
Jesus, I surrender to Your plans
Nevertheless, not my will but Yours
Father every single breath is in Your hands
So I can rest, my future is secure
Jesus, I surrender to Your plans
For Your mercy and Your promises are sure
You're everything I ever need and more
You're nevertheless
