Hope it's not too late to submit my entry for week 37. The week has been extremely hectic for me, running here and there as the final days of my undergraduate journey draw near. But notwithstanding, it's better late than never.
So this week, I'll be doing a song by the oversea-based Nigerian gospel singer and songwriter, Calledout Music. The title of this is “Take Over”.
A little confession. This is a bit different from other covers I've done but I bet you'll like it.
[Verse 1]
I feel like I'm on cloud nine, oh (On cloud nine)
And I will never come down for nothing
I thought I lost my mind, oh (Lost my mind)
Chasin' a life that wasn't worth it
Sometimes it gets hard to separate myself from the life I live
Lord, I know that You plan to make more like You in this life I live
[Chorus]
So, Lord, take over, over, over, over, over me
And draw me closer (Closer), closer to Your heart
So, Lord, take over, over, over, over, over me
And draw me closer (Closer), closer to Your heart
[Verse 2]
Yeah, yeah, it's coming from my heart
Everything I am, Lord, let it burn for You (Purify me)
All that I am, all I will ever be, let it be found in You, my Lord
You take me as I am, but You never leave me the same
All to Jesus, I surrender
[Chorus]
Lord, take over, yeah-yeah (Over, over, over, over me)
And draw me closer (Closer), closer to Your heart
So, Lord, take over, over, over, over, over me
And draw me closer (Closer), closer to Your heart
So, Lord, take over, yeah-yeah, yeah (Over, over, over, over me)
And draw me closer (Closer), closer to Your heart
So, Lord, take over, over, over, over, over me
And draw me closer (Closer), closer to your heart
[Outro]
Ah, ah, take over, ah, take over me
Ah-ah, take over, ah, take over me
Ah-ah, take over, ah, take over me
Ah-ah, over, over, over, over me
