Lyrics

Oh… I've been holding…
I built a kingdom out of paper crowns
Chased the wind in circles, wore it like a gown
Every like, every light, every fleeting sound
Kept me moving but never off the ground
Then You whispered through the noise,
"Trade your ashes for My joy."
I'm letting go of the lesser things
For the treasure that Your love brings
Every chain, every name, every empty ring
I lay it down at the cross of the King
Greater things, greater things
Are waiting on the other side of surrender
I'm running to the greater things
Jesus, You're the prize forever
I wore the worry like a second skin
Counted losses like a fight I'd never win
But You broke the scoreboard, tore the veil within
Saying, "Child, come rest, let My grace begin."
Now the silence speaks Your name,
Every lesser thing feels strange
I'm letting go of the lesser things
For the treasure that Your love brings
Every fear, every tear, every hollow king
I lay it down where Your mercy sings
Greater things, greater things
Are waiting on the other side of surrender
I'm running to the greater things
Jesus, You're the prize forever
Trade it all! (Trade it all!)
For the call! (For the call!)
Every idol falls! (Every idol falls!)
At the feet of the One who gave it all!
No more chasing shadows in the night
I've seen the Pearl, and it's worth the fight
I'm letting go of the lesser things
For the greater things You died to bring
Every crown I wore, every song I sing
Belongs to You, my everything
Greater things, greater things
Are breaking through the veil of my surrender
I'm living for the greater things
Jesus, You're the prize… forever
Every idol falls
All the lesser things fade away
In the light of Your greater name
