A poem about total surrender to Christ that I wrote several years ago. It was true then and still is true today. When we surrender to Christ we find that we become totally free.
I give up my right to be right
I leave the dark and walk into the light
I give up my right to control all things
and take this death the cross life brings
I give up my right to be heard
Instead to concentrate on Your Word
I give up my right to be accepted
Knowing that You also were once rejected
I give up my right to life itself
whether I have beauty, strength, or wealth
I give up my right to have things to possess
and my right to be a success
I give up my right to have my own way
and commit my life to You today
I commit to You my plans and schemes
my future, my hopes and my dreams
My Christian walk, I give to You
As you make me clean and new
Everything that is a part of me
Is surrenedered to You totally
Not my will, but Yours be done
The Christ Life in me has begun
