God I know you know me; better than I know myself So why do you ask me to put things on a shelf?

It seems the things that I want Are the very things you ask for I know though that what you take, you plan to give me more

And I often tell you how much I trust But it is not as easy to do, as it is to say I can tell you I give you everything But then I am holding it the next day

Things that I do not want to give to anyone You ask to to run to you and leave them behind And often I seem to drop them with my hands But I hold onto them with my mind

I know this is not what you ask Lord You dont want part of me you want me all But Lord it is so difficult to surrender my self And I know I should trust you, you will not let me fall

So Lord teach me how to give it all to you Teach me to surrender Lord; that is what I pray Show me how to let go and to really trust you To give you everything you ask; put it down and walk away

Lord I love you with every part of me And I want to wholey serve you;not just with part Lord teach me to surrender all of me To give you my mind, my spirit, and mostly my heart
