Bury The Pride, Trust The Guide (A) Long Version

Bury The Pride, Trust The Guide Lyrics by Derek A. Bentley © Copyright 2024 - Derek A. Bentley [Intro, Spoken] Lord, we come before You, broken and in need. Take away our pride, the walls we've built so high. Humble our hearts and open our eyes to Your truth, That we may surrender all and follow You, our Guide. [Verse] We lied, and we cried, clinging to our own pride We stumble in the night, convinced that we-ee-ee were right We cried out, “Why, Lord? Why is life filled with discord?” We tried, ooh we tried, but we feel like we died. [Chorus, Build-up] Lay your pride aside, surrender to the Guide. Let His truth and grace, set your soul free. We are not alone; His love will guide the way. Turn, believe, and trust, in His Name. [Verse 2] We cast our blame on others’ sins, pointing fingers out, instead of in. Blind to the truth within, Our hearts consumed by pride again. Yet still He calls us by name, His love shown through His flesh slain. He offers peace, a sweet release, Ooh I plead for pride to cease. [Chorus] Lay your pride aside, surrender to the Guide. Let His truth and grace, set your soul free. We are not alone; His love will guide the way. Turn, believe, and trust, in His Name. [Bridge] Some take pride in what they’ve done, They think there is no need, God’s one and only Son. But no one stands without His grace, We need His mercy, to appear before His Face. We cried, and we tried, pleading that we bury pride. [Chorus] Lay your pride aside, surrender to the Guide. Let His truth and grace, set your soul free. We are not alone; His love will guide the way. Turn, believe, and trust, in His Name. [Outro] Bury your pride below, And He will make you whole. Lay it all aside, let His love take control. Bury your pride below, Surrender to His call. In His sacrifice, El Shaddai gave His all. [Slower Vocals, Spoken] El Shaddai gave His all, His one and only Son for all. Jesus bore the cross for us, His mercy unearned we trust. He took the pain, the nails, the shame, to show us love without the blame. [Instrumental] [Spoken] God Almighty please hear my plea, Take away unbelief from those at the tree. God Almighty please hear my plea, May Your Will be done; set them free. Please let them hear your whisper, The still small voice, His voice grew crisper. It speaks of love and sets us free, The Holy Spirit, One in Three. Amen [instrumental] © Copyright 2024 - Derek A. Bentley
