Jason Gray released his new song “I’m Gonna Let It Go," the first single from his upcoming fall project Order Disorder Reorder. Written by Gray along with Jeff Sojka and Ellie Holcomb, who also sings on the track, “I’m Gonna Let It Go” conveys the all-too-relatable theme of our struggle to turn control over to God— but his steadfast love standing constant through it all.
“I think God is a gentleman, and He’ll never force Himself on us. And the first time I began to recognize that dynamic in my own life was-- it says He’ll be my provider, but if I insist on providing for myself, He won’t stop me. He'll say ‘All right, if that’s how you wanna do it, you go head and knock yourself out.’ And then I’ll get down that road, and I’m stressed and I’m aware of my bank statement every minute of every day, until I recognize that I’m doing it and this is not the way I wanna live, and I’m like ‘Okay I’m sorry, I’ve done it again, I want to trust you.' If I insist on being in control and managing my life, the Lord will allow me to do that. But the moment when I let go, He steps in and then I’m on a different plan.”
