Intro Verse:
For the longest time, we've been walking hand in hand.
You've been my lady, and I've been your Man.
And though you've sometimes strayed,
I've held you all along.
And when your hand loosened its grasp
That's when I held it ever strong.
You've entrusted to Me the leading and guiding of your life,
But I want more, not just a friend, but a lover and a wife.

Verse One:
I long to hold you close to Me,
To relieve all your fears,
Kiss away your loneliness and wipe away your tears.
Imagine joined together forever in a destiny divine.
A heavenly love is waiting for you,
And the choice, My child, is Thine.

Chorus:
I want more than to hold your hand,
I want to lift you in My arms,
To carry you, completely Mine,
Protected from all harm.
I want to love you as you've never,
Ever been loved before,
'Cause that's the beauty of surrender:
To yield your all, and more.

Verse Two:
I long to hold you close to Me,
To relieve all your fears,
Kiss away your loneliness and wipe away your tears.
Imagine joined together forever in a destiny divine.
A heavenly love is waiting for you,
And the choice, My child, is Thine.

Chorus:
I want more than to hold your hand,
I want to lift you in My arms,
To carry you, completely Mine,
Protected from all harm.
I want to love you as you've never, ever been loved before,
'Cause that's the beauty of surrender:
To yield your all, and more.

Bridge:
You've entrusted to Me the leading and guiding of your life,
But I want more, not just a friend, but a lover and a wife.

[Repeat Chorus]

That's the beauty of surrender:
To yield your all and more.
