Slave for Life
by Brad Eberly

Album: Doulos

Verse 1
Lord, You know that I haven't given all;
My life is still very much my own.
Yet, I know You care for me,
Your love is not dependant on my will.
I hear You say that You want my life, my all;
Yet, there's things inside of me I can't resign;
Things that are so dear to me,
My life would end if I should let them go.

Chorus
But I want to live in Your will and follow Your design.
I want to be like Jesus and bear in me His mind.
So I'm giving up my whole life; the things that make me, me.
I'll bind myself to Jesus; His slave for life I'll be.

Verse 2
All my dreams; the things I've wanted most;
My need to know and always be right;
My pride in my accomplishments;
Wanting always to be noticed by the crowd;
My love life; my hope to build a home;
The things I own and friendships that I share;
The image I want the world to see;
I've got to give it all to Your control.

Bridge
I've got to let it go;
Got to give up my control;
I've got to let go of my life…
