"All to You, I surrender,Everything, every part of me.All to You, I surrender,All of my dreams, all of me.
...I surrender... cause I trust you God
...all my hope is in You

I'm giving all of my life this time."
I pray that the Lord help me to remember and trust that I am to surrender EVERYTHING to Him, my Lord and Savior.

There is a long article that really fleshes out The Full Surrender. I haven't quite finished reading the entire thing, but it's been interesting and though-provoking.

I Surrender by Kim Walker
There is no love, sweeter than the love You pour on me.
There is no song, sweeter than the song You sing to me.
There is no place, that I would rather be,
Than here at Your feet, laying down everything.
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
All to You, I surrender,
Everything, every part of me.
All to You, I surrender,
All of my dreams, all of me.
If worship's like perfume, I'll pour mine out on You.
For there is none as deserving of my love like You.
So take my hand and draw me into You,
I want to be swept away, lost in love for You.
[Chorus] [repeat]
I surrender, I surrender (cause I trust you God)
O, I surrender (all my hope is in You)
And I surrender (I place all my trust)
O, I surrender (to you God)
O, I surrender (cause your ways are far better than mine)
OOOOoooo, I surrender... yea yea
All to you, all to you, yea yea.
O, I surrender, I surrender
I surrender (all to you, my God)
O, I surrender, I surrender
I surrender... OOooooh...
No turning back, I've made up my mind,
I'm giving all of my life this time. [repeat]
Your love makes it worth it,
Your love makes it worth it all,
Your love makes it worth it all. [repeat]
Your love makes it worth it,
Your love makes it worth it all,
Your love makes it worth it all. [repeat][Chorus]
Your love makes it worth it,
Your love makes it worth it all,
Your love makes it worth it all. [repeat]
I love, love love, Romans 8:28!
