Surrender

There are places in my heart and corners of my mind

That I've hidden from Your light

Like buried treasure deep inside of me

I don't want You to see, I keep it to myself

But You give Your love to me

You open up Your heart unselfishly

Lord, in Your embrace now I can say, I surrender

Everything I held so precious

Everything I kept away

I give it up, give it up

All for You, I give it all for You

Everything I held as treasure

I give it all for You, I give it all for You

In Your light, I feel a new power coming over me

Calling me to Your surrender; I gotta find the answer

What is this Your love has opened up inside?

Suddenly I cannot hide

You give Your love to me

You open up Your heart unselfishly

Lord, in Your embrace now I can say, I surrender

Everything I held so precious

Everything I kept away

I give it up, give it up

All for You, I give it all for You

Everything I held as treasure

I give it all for You, I give it all for You

'Cause Your love is everything to me

And in Your light I finally see

Oh, I can't hold it back

Everything I've hidden deep inside

Now I surrender

Surrender, Lord, I surrender

I give it all to You

You give Your love to me

You open up Your heart unselfishly

How can I not do the same for You?

I surrender

Everything I held so precious

Everything I kept away

I give it up, give it up

All for You, I give it all for You

Everything I held as treasure

I give it all for You, I give it all for You
