Heather Suzanne - You Have To Let Go Lyrics

A hundred broken pieces on the floor
From a simple clay jar kept in my heart
And it was full of all my failures and mistakes
And the past that tries to haunt me to this day
And I tried to pick up the pieces
And put them back together one by one
And I tried to fit them like a puzzle
And put it back together like it was
But as I reached for the next piece
I felt God's hand on mine
As if to say child
Let Me pick up the pieces
That are broken and shattered
'Cause you've been trying to put back together
What was never yours to hold
Let Me form it into something
You've never seen before
'Cause you see with Me to be made new
You have to let go
Wandering through the deserts of my life
When there is nothing left but God and I
And my soul is weary from the endless fight
And I start to wonder if I'll see the other side
But if I'm really being honest
I've relied on myself too much
My pride can act as a fortress
And I've realized it's only made up
But as I tried to make it stronger
I felt God's hand on mine
As if to say child
Let Me tear down the fortress
That is weak and unstable
'Cause you've been trying to make something able
That was never meant to hold
Let Me form it into something
You've never seen before
'Cause you see with Me to be made new
You have to let go
And I know it's scary
And I know it's hard
But I promise if you trust Me
You'll see beauty in the scars
Just let Me pick up the pieces
That are broken and shattered
'Cause you've been trying to put back together
What was never yours to hold
And let Me tear down the fortress
That is weak and unstable
'Cause you've been trying to make something able
That was never meant to hold
And let Me form you into something
You've never seen before
'Cause you see with Me to turn the new from the old
You have to let go
