Surrender
 
I gave my heart to Jesus,
hung it on the cross.
That was many years ago,
but I didn't suffer loss.

He took my heart and made it grand,
multiplied its power.
Now He lives and works through me
every minute, every hour.

He added virtues to my life,
filled my heart with joy and peace.
My only purpose has become
love and forgiveness to give and receive.

My only goal is inner peace.
My mission, to share God's love.
All my prayers for all my friends
bring blessings from above.

When I go to live with Him,
within the jasper walls,
I want to see you there with me
so hearken to His call.
