I was searching in desperation
For someone who would never let me down
Right before me stood the answer
All along it was Your love that I found

Now I'm turning over
All of the things I held on so tightly to
I would have much sooner
But I was afraid to hear myself say

Take control
Take control
Take control of my life

With this vision, I see more clearly
All the things that Your love brings out in me
From the first time that You found me
In Your arms, this is where I want to be

Now I'm turning over
All of the things I held on so tightly to
I would have much sooner
But I was afraid to hear myself say

Take control
Take control
Take control of my life
Please take control

Take control
Take control
Take control of my life

To have this world and its gold
Was all my hands could reach to hold
Like a moth burned by a flame
Selfish greed led me to pain
Through my pride and despair
I found Your love waiting there
You pulled me up and changed within
And this is where new life begins

Now I'm turning over
All of the things I held on so tightly to
I would have much sooner
But I was afraid to hear myself say

Take control
Take control
Take control of my life
Please take control

Take control
Take control
Please take control
Take control of my life
To have this world and its gold
Was all my hands could reach to hold
Like a moth burned by a flame
Selfish greed led me to pain
Through my pride and despair
I found Your love waiting there
You pulled me up and changed within
And this is where new life begins

Oh, won't you take control, take control
Oh, won't you take control, take control
Please take control
Oh, won't you take control, take control
Oh, won't you take control
Please take control

To have this world and its gold
Was all my hands could reach to hold
Like a moth burned by a flame
Selfish greed led me to pain
Through my pride and despair
I found Your love waiting there
You pulled me up and changed within
And this is where new life begins

Oh, won't you take control, take control
Oh, won't you take control, take control
Please take control
Oh, won't you take control, take control
Oh, won't you take control, take control
Please take control
