Surrender


Surrender

Lord guide my life today
Let my choices be true
Let my temptations make
My faith stronger in you

Give me wisdom Lord
With faith in your plan
To learn the trials I face
Make a better man

When I follow your path
Your Spirit guides me
To find stones of truth
Across a troubled sea

We go to a place
Only yours call home
A kingdom of love
Where no sin can roam

When I was born anew
I sought salvation Lord
Your love appealed to me
Although the way was hard

You called my name that day
I felt the lion’s roar
Exhilaration inside
To escape sins I wore

I didn’t know what it meant
That flutter in my heart
Love, peace, and joy you sent
The strength to do my part

You sent a guiding light
A beacon in the dark
Christ your begotten son
Called me to do your work

Lord give me strength I beg
Let my actions be true
Sincerely living my life
To guide the lost to you

When I learn to love
The way you teach us Lord
No judgment passed through me
Living the gifts of your word

Not the words I speak
But the way I live
Please use my life Lord
It’s all I have to give

Seek and you’ll see
Look and you’ll find
Ask the questions you need
And let the Lord provide

It’s not my life to live
Lord I’m only your tool
Put your hand on me
To help others know your Rule.
