So don't go wastin' your time   Holding on to your life      There are treasures that I have possessed   Meant the world to me   But they never fill the emptiness   I needed something more than these      In the middle of my wilderness   God reached down to me   When I let go to His tenderness   I found His love was more than I ever dreamed      So don't go wastin' your time   Holding on to your life   Just lay it all on the line   Gotta make up your mind   There can be no more compromise   Just lay it all on the line      It's a matter of surrendering   Every hidden fear   And by letting go of everything   Jesus will meet you there      In the heart of everyone of us   There's a call to faith   Even though we'll never measure up   That's why the Savior, that's why the Savior came      So don't go wastin' your time   Holding on to your life   Just lay it all on the line   Gotta make up your mind   There can be no more compromise   Just lay it all on the line      So don't go wastin' your time   Holding on to your life   Just lay it all on the line   Gotta make up your mind   There can be no more compromise   Just lay it all on the line      Gone are the days of holding on   This is the time to surrender   Now is the moment you've got to let it go   Just let go, just let go, just let it go now      Don't go wastin', wastin' your time   Gotta make up, make up your mind   There can be no more compromise   Just lay it all on the line      So don't go wastin' your time   Holding on to your life   Just lay it all on the line   Gotta make up your mind   There can be no more compromise   Just lay it all on the line
