Give It to Jesus

You feel the burn
It holds on and won't let you go
It tells you it's your turn
Stand your ground, let the bitterness flow

How long can you stay with your heart in the fire?
With the hurt locked away? Where nobody wins?

Fight through the wall
Beat down the castle door
Brace for the fall
You don't need this anymore
Give it to Jesus
Down to your knees
Pray for the strength to care
Own your belief
I know that it's in there
Sometimes it's just too much for all of us
Give it to Jesus

It's easy to blame
It's hard to let grace wash away the memories
Or the words
The anger that braces the pain

How long can you stay with your heart in the fire?
With the hurt locked away? Where nobody wins?

Fight through the wall
Beat down the castle door
Brace for the fall
You don't need this anymore
Give it to Jesus
Down to your knees
Pray for the strength to care
Own your belief
I know that it's in there
Sometimes it's just too much for all of us
Give it to Jesus

Drop your arms, end the war
Surrender erases the crime
The hurting you feel at the core
Is the place where the healing arrives

How long can you stay with your heart in the fire?
With the hurt locked away? Where nobody wins?

Fight through the wall
Beat down the castle door
Brace for the fall
You don't need this anymore
Give it to Jesus
Down to your knees
Pray for the strength to care
Own your belief
I know that it's in there
Sometimes it's just too much for all of us
Give it to Jesus
