It took some time
For me to realize
I was my own enemy
It took some time
For me to see clearly
That You were there for me
It took some time
For me to obey
And to have trust in You, always
It took some time
For me to surrender
My plans for Yours
It took some time
To see clearly
All my sin
That was in my way
It took some time
To accept Your love
And grace for each day
It took some time
To say I'm sorry and I'm wrong
To humble myself and pray
It took some time
To agree with you
And abandon thoughts of mine
It took some time
To accept the truth
That I was free in Thee
My life completely Thine
It took some time
To say Yes to You
Each and every time
It took some time
For me to be grateful
For everything You do
It took some time
For me to yield and allow
Your grace to flow through
It took some time
To finally accept that
I was not in control and
That my life belonged to You
It took some time
As your bride, to finally say
"I do"
Yes, it took some time
