Take You On - John Schlitt

So many years I lived a lie

What I wanted I could buy

Everything but peace of mind

And I kept on running

You stood there smiling wide

Your plan for me was right on time

My destination — suicide

But God was there waiting

I was once defenseless

But today we’re standing strong

I don’t have to take you on alone anymore

So good to know for sure

I don’t have to be afraid 'cause I know the score

You can’t scare me like before

My strength is here from inside out

A Holy fire that leaves no doubt

I don’t have to take you on alone anymore

Give it up, you’ve lost control

What you had you couldn’t hold

And I’m getting stronger

I don’t have to stand in fear

I know my strength is always near

His voice is what I choose to hear

I’m not yours any longer

If you keep on pressing

This is what I say to you

Holy Spirit now I see

That by Your power I’ve been set free
