Open my eyes Lord,
Show me your will,
Rebuke my flesh, and open my heart,
Reveal your wonder and glory,
Allow me to be still,
Humble my heart, and draw in only your words,
and with it the assurance of truth,
I have given you my body,
Lay it before your flames,
Let the ember flow with your Spirit.

I Surrender

I push past using all my strength,
the enemy strikes me down when I believe my feet are firmly planted,
I feed off what little strength I feel I still have,
Again he strikes like a lion to an injured pray,
My flesh wants me to stay down,
he tells me it would be easier to surrender,
I want to surrender, but not to him,
There is another who wants my submission,
One of great strength and power,
I surrender to the King, and He overtakes me,
The enemy cannot stand against Him and crumbles away.
