Surrender

Verse 1:

Everyone is used to spittin lies that when the truth comes along we all run away and hide, I don’t want the trivial answers in life to satisfy, so I’ll try my very best to find, something sincere, resisting the fear, that attempts to dominate, that only results in tears, I know everything’s better when I finally surrender, when I let go, when I let you break these fetters, that are keeping me bound to myself, you’re the only way out


CHORUS:

Surrender is a daily thing, and today I’ve decided that I’m going to give you everything, I’m sorry for the times when I got in the way, it took me awhile to arrive but I’m finally at the place where you want me.


Verse 2:

I think its time for a change , and rearrange my motives and my dreams, my plots and my schemes, give me your eyes, take away my foolish desires, let them expire, help me to regain the fire that once burned so bright, but is now a dimming light, I want to put up a fight against my flesh, it hasn’t totally got the best of me yet, I don’t want to forget all you’ve done and have helped me accomplish, the sin that I committed didn’t ever once require an accomplice, I’ll admit that the works of my hands weren’t always good, and I haven’t always been the witness I know I should be, but believe me, I’m ready to lay down, spread your name around the world, I know I’m just one girl, but imagine if one person at a time would dedicate their hearts and their minds , to a mission that was greater than themselves, we would see a difference both within and without,

Verse 3:

Following Christ isn’t just professin, its possessin, learning the lesson, that’s stressing, making God our obsession, not just being all talk, but walking the walk, its proving that God is real, not just something based on how we feel, its not just a mere claim, in fact in the word it is clearly stated that if we’re gonna love Christ than we’re gonna be hated by man, because they just don’t get it, they don’t understand, God’s amazing plan, its up to us to live the kind of life that would please, offering the lost a cure for their fatal disease, so let this be noted as my two weeks of my dying to myself and my needs, and the old life I used to lead.
