Abandoned Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Somethin' isn't adding up
This wild exchange You offer us
I gave my worst, You gave Your blood
Seems hard to believe
You're tellin' me You chose the Cross?
You're tellin' me I'm worth that much?
Well, if that's the measure of Your love
How else would I sing?

[Chorus]
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
Oh, I'm completеly, deeply, don't-care-who-sees-me abandoned

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, I surrеnder all

[Verse 2]
I just can't get over it
What kind of self-control is this?
When You had angels at Your fingertips
But on the Cross You remained
And I can't repay that kind of love
But I can praise with everything I've got
Since death had all of it's power robbed
Then just like the grave

[Chorus]
I'm completely, deeply, sold-out, sincerely abandoned
I'm completely, freely, hands-to-the-ceiling enamored
Oh, my one-life endeavor
To match Your surrender
To mirror not my will, but Yours
Oh, I'm completely, deeply, don't-care-who-sees-me abandoned

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, I surrender all
I surrender all
I surrender all

[Bridge]
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
Oh, consider it Yours, Lord
Consider it Yours

[Chorus]
I'm completely, deeply, sold-out, sincerely abandoned (Hey!)
I'm completely, freely, hands-to-the-ceiling enamored
Oh, 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

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, I surrender all

[Outro]
No, You'll never leave me abandoned
I surrender all

What did Benjamin William Hastings say about "Abandoned"?

At first listen this song may come across like it’s about our abandon and sure, it is, but to me it’s really more about His. He who not only chose the cross but had ‘angels at His fingertips’ and chose to remain. Every second, deciding again not to give up but to persevere. To repeatedly pursue surr...
