Are you in bondage to the status of nice things?
Addicted to the attention and the compliments they bring?
Feeling the weight of growing debt with each fill
That’s not His Will, that’s not His Will
If that’s not you then maybe this one is on point
Still need a drink or you gotta smoke one joint?
To get through the pain of all the heartache that you feel
That’s not his will, that’s not his will
It’s not a trial, it’s not a test, God wants for you His best,
But not until you submit to His Will
Do you need validation wrapped up in false love?
So you sneak out to the strip club
Knowing that nothing there can ever be for real
That’s not his will, that’s not his will
Maybe you think that you will find it in someone
So you sleep around hoping each time that you’re done
But that one is not found and you’re still trying to heal
That’s not his will, that’s not his will
It seems unfair & it’s so much stress,
But God wants for you, His best
But not until you submit to His Will
(“Just when you thought no one was listening”)
He heard your quiet tears (late in the midnight hour)
He knows your silent fears (He wants to just renew)
He wants to just renew
His relationship (oh God) with you
Don’t be afraid of facing everything inside
Even the guilt, wrapped up in pride
God will step in, but He’s waiting until
You’re in His Will, you’re in His will
Don’t you give up
Don’t settle for less
God wants for you his best
But not until you submit to His Will
(You’ve gotta submit to His will)
Jesus is waiting
To reveal his plan for you for real
But it won’t happen
Till you start to submit to his will
(All of God’s people come on, lift your hands to Him
Let’s submit to His Will)
