Learnig to Fall Lyrics

I've heard it said a million times
that I should hold on tight to Jesus
But I took this road so far from Home
and distance came between us
When I walked away
I knew one day I'd need your grace

So now you'll find me on my knees surrendering
'Cause I know that I'm not so very strong
And now, done fighting for control
Lord you can have this life that I've been holding for so long
I'm learning to fall

You ran so fast to rescue me
While I was barely breathing
You picked me up, You touched my face
and I began to see more clearly
Though I'm such a disgrace You still forgave
And your love remains

Take me as an offering
I surrender everything
No more living without You

So now, You find me on my knees surrendering
'Cause I know that I'm not so strong
And now, done fighting for control
Lord you can have this life that I've been holding for so long

So now, You find me on my knees surrendering
'Cause I know that I'm not so strong
And now, done fighting for control
Lord you can have this life that I've been holding for so long
I'm learning to fall
Let my world crumble
I'm learning to fall
Let my world crumble

Going Under

Surrender Saved My Life

Something To Deny

Only Good

Say Goodnight

I've heard it said a million times 
that I should hold on tight to Jesus 
But I took this road so far from Home 
and distance came between us 
When I walked away 
I knew one day I'd need your grace

So now you'll find me on my knees surrendering 
'Cause I know that I'm not so very strong 
And now, done fighting for control 
Lord you can have this life that I've been holding for so long 
I'm learning to fall

You ran so fast to rescue me 
While I was barely breathing 
You picked me up, You touched my face 
and I began to see more clearly 
Though I'm such a disgrace You still forgave 
And your love remains

So now you'll find me on my knees surrendering 
'Cause I know that I'm not so very strong 
And now, done fighting for control 
Lord you can have this life that I've been holding for so long 
I'm learning to fall

Take me as an offering 
I surrender everything 
No more living without You

So now, You find me on my knees surrendering 
'Cause I know that I'm not so strong 
And now, done fighting for control 
Lord you can have this life that I've been holding for so long

So now, You find me on my knees surrendering 
'Cause I know that I'm not so strong 
And now, done fighting for control 
Lord you can have this life that I've been holding for so long 
I'm learning to fall 
Let my world crumble 
I'm learning to fall 
Let my world crumble

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I too can relate to this song. I walked away from God at one point in my life and interestingly enough saw This Beautiful Republic live and heard this song for the first time the night that I found him again.

This is a song about a person who got saved. After they got saved the started making bad choices, falling away from God. And in the midst of all of that everything he was doing just made him feel more empty. He notices that God is what he need. He says Lord you can have this life that I've been holding for so long That means he is saying God I am tierd of this life style I am giving it to you take it away so that I dont struggle with it.

If you are Struggling with something give it to God let hiim take care of it for. Just trust him and you will be safe.
