#1

In prayer the other day, I felt God moving me back to songwriting. It's been a while since I've written a song. In 2011, I probably wrote 3. Not a lot, considering I think of myself as a song writer. God spoke to me and said that He wanted to use me in this area this year. I won't be posting most of my songs on here, as not to clutter the blog, but I may post one randomly. Here's the first one I wrote yesterday. 

Surrender

Verse I

In my life I don’t understand

Why You leave me, or so it seems

Where are You? Where am I?

I just want to be free.

I need You; I can’t do this alone.

I love You. Would You take me home?

Chorus

Jesus, I surrender to You.

Jesus, please make me new.

I’m tired of fighting; I’m tired of losing.

I’m tired of trying and failing.

I surrender.

Verse II

I need You more than the rain.

I’m lost without Your blood.

I need You to sustain.

Cover me like a flood.

I’m lonely, desperate; I need to be freed.

I’m calling, searching; Your strength I need.

Bridge

I surrender to Your grace. I surrender to Your love.

I surrender to Your mercy. I surrender to Your blood.

I surrender to Your promises. I surrender to Your peace.

I surrender to Your will, Lord. I know You are for me.
