a prayer of surrender


O Great and Powerful God,

We stand small and weak before You, knowing Your power and might. Thankful that we can know You, be loved by You, and trust in who You are.

Help us surrender, Father. Surrender to Your will for our lives. Bind us to Your heart, knowing that in all Jesus did, we are Yours forever. In our rebelliousness, help us to obey. In our stubbornness, make us pliable. In our pride, give us humility. For Father, you are the One True God, in whom all things are possible. Bend our will to Yours alone.


Three Persons and one God, I bless and praise thee, 
for love so unmerited, so unspeakable, so wondrous, 
so mighty to save the lost and raise them to glory. 
O Father, I thank thee that in fullness of grace 
thou hast given me to Jesus,
to be his sheep, jewel, portion; 
O Jesus, I thank thee that in fullness of grace 
thou hast accepted, espoused, bound me; 
O Holy Spirit, I thank thee that in fullness of grace 
thou hast exhibited Jesus as my salvation, 
implanted faith within me, 
subdued my stubborn heart, 
made me one with him for ever.

(From the Valley of Vision)


Amen
