hearts on loose.

Heart of stone
Who am I, that the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love and watch me rise again
Who am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me
Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You are
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
Vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours
Surrender. I used to picture a man with his hands thrown up in the air, letting go of all that he held onto and allowing someone else to take full control of the situation because he didn't bother to try to make things better. Surrender meant giving up. Giving up on all hope or the chance amend broken things. To be completely helpless and deemed as a failure. But the true meaning of surrender is to give in. Give in to His superiority, give in to His endless love, give in because He first gave it all. I never knew that. And though now i know, i can't bring myself to give in. Not because of pride. But because i'm not worth it.
Oh when my heart has fallen into sleep.
