Victory of Surrender............


I offer You my heart
My mind, my soul
For only you, Lord
Can make me whole

Oh, that your Spirit
Would fill me always
Oh, that my lips
Sing forever your praise



May my every moment
My every thought and move
Bring You great delight
As You gladly approve

Yes, this is my prayer
Today and tomorrow
I give you my all
And release all my sorrow



For to let go of me
And to be filled with You
Is to experience Joy
With Peace and Love True

No victory more sweet
Has one ever known
Than to surrender to Christ
And be fully His own



Paradoxical that victory
And surrender are one
Yet such is the Truth
Of living one with the Son

So a fragrant offering
May my life ever be
A sweet sacrifice
May my days be to Thee



Blood poured from You that day
For humanity and its sin
A sacrifice beyond thought
That New Life would begin

So aromatic and sweet
May my life offering be
A humble gift to my Lord
Giving Him all of me

For whatsoever is born
of God overcometh the world:
and this is the victory
that overcometh the world,
even our faith.
