For the heart that is being tugged on ...

Sweet Surrender
By Jody R Goode
8/24/04

The struggles of this life have pinned me to the wall
I find myself powerless to take even one step more

There was a day long ago
When You were pinned to a tree
There for me
To set me free
O, why couldn’t I see!?

At long last, my eyes are open – I understand …
When I am weak, only then can You be strong
This was Your plan all along

To stand, I must fall
What’s right is now wrong
I cannot do this thing alone!

I give in, yet will not give up

There You are before me, to raise me up
To lead me to the righteous path
Forever with me as You’ve promised
Never to forsake
A solid Rock on which to stand

Although Your ways are far too deep to fathom
In You I find rest, peace
And,O, so sweet surrender
For my soul
