Amy Grant - Got To Let It Go Lyrics






All my lifetime plans
Got' em in my hands
Balancing my fate upon a wire
Got to let it go
Everywhere I turn I see
There's nowhere left to go
All my dreams are far
Too much for me to hold
Still I hate to drop them
Weren't they from you
What did I do
You alone can see
Into the heart of me
Am I really givin' up tomorrow
Got to let it go
This is gonna hurt a little
Still it's right I know
Even though I fear
Too much of me might show
I can't wait any longer for it
I've had enough
I'll give it up

[Chorus:]
Lord, here's my heart, I've been keepin' it from you
And I've got to let it go
Holdin' on just brings me worry
Got to let it go
Come and take it from me, hurry
Got to let it go
Got to let it go
Got to give up all of my control

Holdin' on too tight
Where do I lose sight
Where's the line that seems to bring frustration
Got to let it go
The best of dreams can turn to nightmares
When my heart takes hold
How long must I learn
This lesson's getting old
I've got to catch a clearer vision
I'm in your hand
You're in command

[Chorus]

Amy Grant Got To Let It Go Comments
  1. S.... K....

    All my life-time plans,
    I got em in my hands.
    Balancing my fate upon a wire.
    Got to let it go.
    Everywhere I turn I see
    There's nowhere left to go.
    All my dreams are far,
    Too much for me to hold.
    Still I hate to drop them,
    Weren't they from you? 
    What did I do?

    You are the one that can see,
    Into the heart of me.
    Am I really giving up tomorrow? 
    Got, got, got to let it go.
    This is gonna hurt a little,
    Still its right I know.
    Got to let it --
    Even though I fear
    Too much of me might show,
    I cant wait any longer for it,
    I've had enough!
    Ill give it up!

    Lord, here's my heart,
    I've been keeping it from you,
    And I got to let it go.
    Holding on just breaks me, worry,
    Got to let it go,
    Come and take it from me, hurry,
    Got to let it go.
    Go to let it, got to let it go.
    Got to give up all of my control!

    Holding on too tight,
    Where do I lose sight? 
    Wheres the lamb that seems to bring frustration,
    Go to let it go.
    The best of dreams can turn to nightmares,
    When my heart takes hold.
    How long must I learn? 
    This lessons getting old,
    I've got to catch a clearer vision,
    I'm in your hands!
    You're in command!

    Stella K THANK YOU for posting the lyrics! Much appreciated

  2. M.... ....

    She was the first Christian musician that I remember as a kid. Thought she was so pretty and this was always my favorite from Age to age.

  3. M.... J....

    Bellísima canción cristiana!!!

  4. M.... C....

    These two were perfect for each other. I mean just listen to them singing together. They were made for each other.
    I know it’s been years, however it still upsets me that they divorced 😞💔

  5. K.... -....

    truly a gem from the 80s.

  6. N.... A....

    The struggle of salvation-- and living for Christ-- in one song. And great support vocals from Gary Chapman-- Amy Grant's ex....

    Always wanted to know who all the musicians and background vocalists were on this...Brilliant production with an awesome message..One of my favs from Amy.

    C.... 9....

    The male lead vocalist is Brown Bannister. Background vocals are First Call.

    +Jay Foster O wow...Thanks man..can't even believe I never purchased the Lp back then.

    C.... 9....

    Lol. No problem!

    C.... 9....

    I do know it's Paul Leim on drums, who has done a bunch of stuff in L.A. and Nashville. If you listen close, you can hear the nylon tips of his sticks and the cymbal felts gating his toms.

  11. G.... S....

    I was head-over-heels in love with Amy Grant at the time. She was my crush. ( ^ _ ^ )
