Song Title: Do It Your Way

Written by: Cheh Peng, Chu Qiao, Jia Zhi, Kai Sin, Leon Lim

It is finally time I post another song. This song was inspired during our song writing workshop. Together with 4 other wonderful people I wrote this song. I hope you all will like it.

I’m posting up the demo again. I somehow like the feel of the song. Just gives me the drive! Yeah….

This song was inspired when a catch phrase came up among us ‘Do It Your Way’. We were really struggling to get something out of our heads that everyone would really agree on. But this phrase just inspired us to know that we really just wanted it God’s way. The music just came to me as something passionately I wanted to scream out. With some nice lines given by Cheh Peng.

The Lyrics were masterfully crafted by all of them brainstorming what they really wanted to tell God. How we struggle to let it all go. But indeed we just want to let it go because we know what God has installed is the best. His way, His will. In the end we came out with this. Hope you guys love it

Do It Your Way


Verse:

I am weak but You are strong

When I’m down, You lift me up

When my strength is gone

Refresh my heart

Search me Lord and know my thoughts

Deep inside I’ve always fought

I’m holding on it’s hard to let it go


Pre-Chorus:

Teach me and lead me

To glorify Your name

Chorus:

Do it Your way

Do it Your way

Not mine but Your will be done

Lord do it Your way

Do it Your way

Do it Your way

I surrender all to You

My everything

Lord do it Your way


Verse 2:

Forgiven all my hidden faults

My cherished sins my secret gods

Your loving grace

Has filled my life anew

I stand before you now redeemed

Your crimson blood has washed me clean

My heart is Yours

You have set me free


Bridge:

I’m letting go

I’m letting go

I’ll live for you alone

(Repeat)

    Urm, shouldn’t it be 6 ppl in total then?

    I like the lyrics & find the mix refreshing, although the song on the whole needs some getting used to.

    I found it hard to catch the notes on the last sentence of each verse. Wonder if the congregation will be able to follow or “overwrite” your originals? ;p

    Personally liked the transition part to the bridge. Very nice.

    :) Oh well these aren’t finalized. We may change to suit what people need. But it would be good if the congregation can also learn to advance themselves and catch such things right? Perhaps one day that dream of mine will come true. At the moment, we do see that problem.

    Thank you for you kind and constructive commentS! Corrected the mistake (unless I’m trying to hint that I’m a wonderful person too) haha
