Father
I need to tell You the truth
I gave somebody
What belonged to You
I called it love
I called it loyalty
I called it needing them
But it was worship
I made them an idol
And somewhere in trying not to lose them
I lost myself
Their approval became my peace
Their silence became my punishment
If they smiled
I felt worthy
If they pulled away
I felt worthless
I changed my voice
Changed my boundaries
Changed what I believed
Just to remain
What they wanted me to be
I kept asking them
Do you love me
Do you see me
Will you stay
While You were calling me
Beloved
Chosen
Mine
And I could not hear You
Because their voice
Had become too loud
Forgive me Father
I made them an idol
I made you an idol
But you can't have my worship
I worship the Father
My soul belongs to Jesus
I'm pulling you down
From the throne that I gave you
You can't have my worship
My soul belongs to Jesus
My soul belongs to Jesus
My soul belongs to Jesus
I gave you too much
But my soul belongs to Jesus
It wasn't only a person
It was applause
It was being needed
It was the way attention
Made my emptiness feel full
It was money
It was comfort
It was the image I protected
It was success
It was ministry
It was wanting people
To recognize my name
I said I wanted You glorified
But I was wounded
When nobody noticed me
I said You were enough
But I panicked
Whenever something left
Father
I built altars everywhere
Then wondered why
I could not feel You at mine
Forgive me
For asking people to carry
What only You can hold
Forgive me
For punishing them
When they could not save me
Forgive me
For calling control love
Calling obsession covenant
Calling dependency devotion
I placed a human being
On a throne
That crushed them
And corrupted me
I expected them to be everywhere
Know everything
Heal everything
And never fail me
But they are not God
Money is not God
Success is not God
Comfort is not God
My feelings are not God
I am not God
There is only one God
And I return my worship
Come down
Come down
Every person I placed above obedience
Come down
Every relationship I feared losing
More than I feared losing myself
Come down
Every title that gave me identity
Come down
Every platform that made me feel important
Come down
Every appetite I obeyed in secret
Come down
Every possession I trusted for security
Come down
Every image I maintained through deception
Come down
You have occupied this throne long enough
You cannot have my worship
You cannot have my mind
You cannot have my identity
You cannot have my soul
Father
My hands are shaking
Because releasing this
Feels like losing part of me
But if I have to keep an idol
To know who I am
Then I still don't know
Who I am in You
So let it fall
Even if I cry
Let it fall
Even if they leave
Let it fall
Even if nobody applauds
Let it fall
Even if obedience makes me lonely
Let it fall
Do not let me rebuild tomorrow
What I am tearing down tonight
Stand guard over this altar
Until my heart remembers
Who belongs on the throne
Take Your seat again
Take Your seat again
Take Your seat again
At the center of me
I can love you
Without worshiping you
I can honor you
Without bowing to you
I can lose your approval
Without losing my identity
I can survive your absence
Because God has not abandoned me
You may walk away
But my soul still belongs to Jesus
The money may disappear
But my soul still belongs to Jesus
The door may close
But my soul still belongs to Jesus
The applause may stop
But my soul still belongs to Jesus
I may lose what I held
But I will not lose myself
My life is hidden in Christ
My heart belongs to Jesus
My mind belongs to Jesus
My body belongs to Jesus
My worship belongs to Jesus
My future belongs to Jesus
My gifts belong to Jesus
My name belongs to Jesus
My soul belongs to Jesus
No other god
No other throne
No other name
Will possess what He redeemed
I made you an idol
But you can't have my worship
I worship the Father
My soul belongs to Jesus
I'm pulling you down
From the throne that I gave you
You can't have my worship
My soul belongs to Jesus
Come down
Come down
Come down
Jesus
Take Your place
Jesus
Take Your place
Jesus
Take Your place
In me again
I found myself
When I returned my worship
I found my voice
When I stopped begging for approval
I found my freedom
When the idol fell
My soul belongs to Jesus
My soul belongs to Jesus
My soul belongs to Jesus
And I will not bow again
