    Behind The Song: Rhett Walker Band Shares The Story Behind Their Song “I Surrender”

    By Abby Carpenter | Christian News | 0 comment | 22 May, 2018 | 2

    This week’s featured song story comes to us from Rhett Walker Band. We’re excited to share with you the story behind their song “I Surrender.”

    “It was a song I wrote with a friend of mine and it was just a conversation we had one day. We were talking about being a better spouse, being a better parent, just being a good human being and how that goes with this life we live. I feel like we spend a lot of our times trying to please man, try to be good enough, try to be this person that we’re not and we totally forget about grace and we discount it.And so this song was a song where we’re like even on our best days, even when we feel like we have everything under control, we’re one step away from just messing it all up. I was like how do we put that into a song? We thought about a bunch of different ways to write this song and I didn’t want to just throw Jesus into a song or try to say it in a certain way just to make it feel pretty and shiny. I was like one thing I know me personally that I have to do every morning when I wake up is just say ‘God I surrender my life. I surrender my marriage. I surrender my kids. I surrender my music. I can’t do this by myself.’” – Rhett Walker

    “I Surrender” Lryics

    All these miles, all the pain
    The million times, I lost my way
    A guilty past I’ve held onto
    I lay them down, I run to You

    I surrender, everything I am
    I surrender, my heart into Your hands
    My hope, my Lord
    My life is Yours
    I surrender
    I surrender

    All my dreams, all my doubts
    The fear that fights to drown You out
    Oh take it all to the ocean floor
    Yeah, who I was, I am no more

    I surrender, everything I am
    I surrender, my heart into Your hands
    My hope, my Lord
    My life is Yours
    I surrender
    I surrender

    I’m not my own, bought at a price
    By the King of kings, who gave His life
    To break my every chain and set this captive free
    Oh Jesus, all of me

    I surrender, oh everything I am
    I surrender, my heart into Your hands
    My hope, my Lord
    My life is Yours
    I surrender
    Oh, I surrender

    Lord, I surrender
    Oh, I surrender
