All I Need

Take it.
Take it all.
It was never really mine anyway.

If there is anything standing between us,
if there is anything keeping me from you,
then take it

I trust you with my heart,
my soul, my life
and my salvation.
In the past,
when you've taken things from me,
I've been angry and hurt.
But no more.

Now I see that you simply want
what is best for me,
and when I cling to other things
it keeps me from feeling your love
and serving you as I ought

So take it,
take it all,
whatever it is.
Family, friends,
money, respect,
pride,
it doesn't matter

Take everything.
I don't care how much it hurts,
and when I have nothing left
then I will finally realize
that you are all I need.
