Continual Surrender

A long, long time ago My life I did surrender Aware of my shortcomings So clearly I remember Giving Him total control Confident in His care Relying on His strength No weight I couldn’t bear But somehow I slowly wander Out of His precious sight Taking back what I once surrendered Carrying a burden that’s no longer light Caught in an endless cycle This life so confusing, complicated My continual weaknesses, imperfections Leave me fed up and frustrated Yet the Lord lovingly waits He’s patient with my pace He continually assures me I’m never a hopeless case By Amanda Dieppa 6/16/04
