Song Of Surrender

(album: Carry Away - 2003)

There is a wicked man in me
Wanting the wicked man's disease
Fleeting pleasures, but pleasures indeed
O Lord, take my envy of these things
And the prideful war within
Take me to the place of sweet surrender
For You are, You were, You will always be better...

This is a song of surrender
For whom have I but You
You are! You are better!
Forever so much better than the world
You are my portion, You are my portion
You are my portion
My never ending, overflowing Lord
My reward
My reward
My portion, Lord

You are Lord...

Creator of created things
Greatest personality
No ear has heard
Nor mind conceived
And though Your Spirit groans in me
And all creation sings of Your return
My feet are slipping, be my help
For You are, You were, You will always be better...

This is a song of surrender
For whom have I but You
You are! You are better!
Forever so much better than the world
You are my portion, You are my portion
You are my portion
My never ending, overflowing Lord
My reward
My reward
You are my portion, Lord

This is a song of surrender
For whom have I but You
You are! You are better!
Forever so much better than the world
You are my portion, You are my portion
You are my portion
My never ending, overflowing Lord
My reward
You're my reward
My portion, Lord
