Poetry by Amy

Surrender

I am down on the floor
Head on my knees
Sobbing out my heart
Crying out, “Please!”

“Please take this life from me
I place it in your hands
I am tired of running
Sinking feet in the sand”

“Be my strong rock
When I am too weak
For I now understand
That it is you I seek”

“Make this heart pure
Take away the pain
Please forgive my sins
Make me whole again”

“To you I surrender
The one living God
My life is again yours
Who cares if I’m odd?”

When I lift my head
I can finally smile
Your peace overwhelms
I start up the aisle

To others just like me
All in tears
Looking for a savior
They’ve found one here

As I pray for these teens
I am certain of your love
I look up gratefully
Gratitude for the strength from above

We are a hurting generation
But we are also strong
We will fight to win this battle
We hear the words from His tongue

Sometimes we mess up
And lose our way
But we know God is with us
Each and every day

So you better get ready
Because we are coming
We’re ready for this world
We’re tired of running

So Jesus here we come
Take us and use us
To you we give our lives
We are ready to do this
