Abandoned

Benjamin William Hastings

Something isn’t adding up
This wild exchange you offer us
I gave my worst, you gave your blood
Seems hard to believe

You’re telling me you chose the cross?
You’re telling me I'm worth that much?
If that’s the measure of your love
How else would I sing but

Completely, deeply, sold out sincerely, abandoned
I'm completely, freely, hands to the ceiling enamored
My one life endeavor
To match your surrender
To mirror not my will but yours
I'm completely, deeply, don’t care who sees me abandoned
Oh I surrender all

I just can’t get over it
What kind of self control is this
You had angels at your fingertips
But on the cross you remained

I can’t repay that kind of love
But I can praise with everything I got
Since death had all its power robbed
Then just like the grave

I'm completely, deeply, sold out sincerely, abandoned
I'm completely, freely, hands to the ceiling enamored
My one life endeavor
To match your surrender
To mirror not my will but yours
I'm completely, deeply, don’t care who sees me abandoned
Oh I surrender all

I surrender all
I surrender all

The whole of my heart
The best of my soul
Each phase of my life
Each breath in my lungs

Consider it yours lord
Consider it yours lord

The failures I hide
The victories I don’t
The battles I fight
Each crown that I hoard

Consider it yours lord
Consider it yours lord

All the glory forever
The grave that you won
The praise of the heavens
The kingdom to come

Consider it yours lord
Consider it yours
