Surrender

Die to self and live to God...

Matthew 16:26
"Then Jesus said to His disciples, '"If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me.'"

What kind of a God is it who asks everything of us?
The same God who "...did not spare His own Son, but gave Him up for us all; and with this gift how can He fail to lavish up us all He has to give?"

Romans 8:32
"He who did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all, how will He not also with Him graciously give us all things?"

HE GIVES ALL.
HE ASKS ALL.

Oh Lord, let this be my prayer today...


Surrender
by Jeremy Camp

Purify this tainted soul
I'm tired of living life a fool
Soften up this heart in clay
To be a servant this I pray
A reflection of You I long to be
So Your kingdom I will see

I Surrender to Your throne
I Surrender to Your throne
And I will make my heart Your home
Oh I Surrender to Your throne

I've taken things I've thought my own
Only to reap what I sow
You've given back the years I've fought
An Ending love and grace You brought
Eternal hope and peace You bring
And forever unto You I will sing

Forever unto You I will sing

And I surrender
And I surrender
And I surrender now

Soften up this heart in clay
To be a servant this I pray
