I Surrender

I SURRENDER

VERSE 1: (John)
As the rain pours down upon my door, I think about my God,
How He has been faithful as I ran the other way.
He is still knocking. Will I let Him come inside?
Is there room within my heart? It is for me He died.

CHORUS:
I surrender to You, now and forever.
Thank You, Jesus; You are the life.
I surrender to You, now and forever.
I’ll praise You, dear Lord; You are, yes, You are the Christ.

VERSE 2 (Richard)
You shed light, Lord, on my sinful ways,
And led my feet off the path that leads to harm.
You shine bright, Lord; it’s true, You are the way,
I’d be lost without You, Lord, please stay.

BRIDGE: (John)
So now I bow before You, Father, on Your throne,
I Think of Your great mercy, all the things You have done.
And how Your love pours down through the gift of Your Son.
Holy, Holy, Holy is my God from above.
