Tonight I prayed to set you free
you may not know that you were not
but you've been locked inside of me
in a heart that's full of rot

resentment, anger, jealousy
fear that you will hurt me so
you've been consuming all of me
even though you did not know

So now I asked the Lord to take
this fear I have of losing you
I did this for both of our sake
even though you've not a clue

I'll love you till my dying breath
with true love there is no fear
best friends until even death
if this can be, it will be clear

I cannot love you on my own
my ego just gets in the way
but Jesus' love has set the tone
so now I'll stop and come what may
