Whatever It Takes
by Stephen Stanley

Album: Divided Frame of Mind


Verse 1
It's hard for me to believe
That I've got nothing to prove
I thought this dirt on my hands
Was gonna keep me from You
I fall as much as I rise
Feels like my walk is a crawl
When I'm alone in the night
Won't You leave the light on?

Chorus
'Cause I've been reckless with my heart
Now I'm falling apart
I don't wanna be the same
I need You to be the change
I surrender all I am
I know I've made mistakes but
The past will wash away
Oh, do whatever it takes

Verse 2
Thought I was never enough
Hurt has a way of its own
But I can lift up my eyes
And know that You're in control
Sometimes I won't get it right
I'm gonna stumble and fall
When I'm alone in the night
I know You'll leave the light on

Chorus
'Cause I've been reckless with my heart
Now I'm falling apart
I don't wanna be the same
I need You to be the change
I surrender all I am
I know I've made mistakes but
The past will wash away
Oh, do whatever it takes

Bridge
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh (Whatever it takes)
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh (I know You will)

Chorus
'Cause I've been reckless with my heart
Now I'm falling apart
I don't wanna be the same
I need You to be the change
I surrender all I am
I know I've made mistakes but
The past will wash away
Oh, do whatever it takes

Great song about returning back to Him and trusting Him to do His work in us when we cooperate with Him (sow to the Spirit). He'll meet us there! - Feb 2026
