  • I hear the clock beep, pull me out of my sleep
    Tell me there's a day ahead of me
    Trying to wake up, sipping on a hot cup
    With the little lady in green

    And I'm praying 'bout the man I wanna be
    Saying, God, please take all of me
    And fill me up with Your love

    Love, take these words that I'm speaking
    Love, take these thoughts that I'm thinking
    Love, take me over
    Love, fill up all of my space and
    Love, stand right here in my place
    Love, hear this prayer that I'm praying
    Love, take me, love, take me over
    Love, take me over

    This is what I'm sure of, I can only show love
    When I really know how loved I am
    When it overtakes me, then it animates me
    Flowing from my heart into my hands

    So I'm praying, Father, help my heart believe
    That right now You're singing over me
    And fill me up with Your love

    Love, take these words that I'm speaking
    Love, take these thoughts that I'm thinking
    Love, take me over
    Love, fill up all of my space and
    Love, come stand right here in my place
    Love, hear this prayer that I'm praying
    Love, take me, love, take me over
    Love, take me over

    (Take me over, take me over)
    Let Your never-ending, never-failing
    All-consuming love, take over me

    So I am praying, Father, help my heart believe
    That right now You're singing over me
    And fill me up with Your love

    Your love, take these words that I'm speaking
    Love, take these thoughts that I'm thinking
    Love, take me over
    Love, fill up all of my space and
    Love, stand right here in my place
    Love, hear this prayer that I'm praying
    Love, take everything that I'm doing
    Love, like a river, flow through me
    Love, take me over

    Love, fill up all of my space and
    Love, stand right here in my place
    Love, hear this prayer that I'm praying
    Love, take me, love, take me over
    Love, take me, love, take me over
    Love, take me, love, take me over
    Love, take me over Writer/s: Steven Curtis Chapman
