Let it Be

Often times I think that I can heal by my control

I fail to see my limits and that I can't make me whole

So when I fall I turn to you, powerless and humbled

Realizing without your hands that I have failed and stumbled

I am human though I try to be a perfect being

Teach me in my failure that surrender leads to seeing

Let my effort not be greatness but submission to your plan

For you guide me by your mercy, and I follow as I can

I bring to you my smallness, brokenness on bended knee

Asking for the grace for me to simply "let it be"
