Third Day - Revelation

Third Day's new album is quite good. I was rather let down with their last two studio endeavors but Revelation seems to be a return to their former style, sound and energy. Yeah, there’s been some whining about their appearance with the Pope last Spring but so be it. I’m not in agreement with joining the RC’s in cooperative works but Third Day playing for the Pope is not a big deal. Besides, it comports with their “come together” motif. Anyway, Take It All stands out to me as one of the better tunes on the album. Below are the lyrics and the tune is quite well done, too.

All the promises I've broken

All the times I've let you down

You've forgot them

But still I hold on to

the pain that makes me drown

Now I'm ready

To let it go

To give it away

Take it all

'Cause I can't take it any longer

All I have, I can't

make it on my own

Take the first, take the last

Take the good and take the rest

Here I am, all I have

Take it all

All the roads that lie before me

All the struggles I go through

Every second I'm reminded

That it all belongs to you

Now I'm ready

To let it go

To give it away

Ever since I died to myself

You gave a better life to me

I give you my finest moment

I give you the last breath I breathe
