Jesus, I surrender my all to you.

 Jesus, I Surrender

Not just the broken pieces, Lord, but all—

The triumphs I have clutched,the pride that stands so tall,

The secret hopes still gleaming in my breast,

The unhealed wounds I guard within my chest.

Jesus, I surrender my all to You.

Here are my hands—their work, their strength, their skill,

The empty and the aching,let them do Your will.

Unclench my grasp on all I claim as mine,

And fill them with Your purpose,Your design.

I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. (Galatians 2:20)

Here are my feet—their chosen path, their pace,

The restless,wandering race from grace to grace.

Plant them upon the Rock,the narrow way,

And lead me step by step into Your day.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. (Proverbs 3:5-6)

Here is my will—the throne-room of my soul,

Where I have fought to reign,to keep control.

I step down now.I yield the crown to Thee.

Be King in me.Oh, be King in me.

Yet not as I will, but as you will. (Matthew 26:39)

Here is my heart—its love, its tangled fears,

Its stored-up joys,its reservoir of tears.

Its every chamber,every locked-door part,

I surrender to the Surgeon of the heart.

Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. (Psalm 51:10)

Here is my mind—its knowledge, thought, and dream,

The bright,the dark, the confident, the scheme.

Take every captive thought,make it obey

The sovereign truth and beauty of Your way.

We take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. (2 Corinthians 10:5)

Here is my past—its shame, its faded light,

My future—all its unknown day and night.

My present moment,with its burdened breath,

I surrender to You,in life and death.

Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. (Romans 12:1)

I hold back nothing. Search me, if I do.

For all I am and have belongs to You.

This is my spiritual act of worship—true:

Jesus, I surrender my all to You.

Take me, break me, make me, fill me, send me.

Let Your“Yes” and “Amen” be the end of me.

And in the ruins of my surrendered pride,

Let resurrected life in me abide.

Amen.

The Heart of Surrender:

This prayer echoes the total offering scripture calls for:

· Romans 12:1 calls it our "true and proper worship"—a living sacrifice.

· Galatians 2:20 describes the exchanged life: our old self for Christ's living presence.

· Matthew 26:39 models it in Gethsemane: "Yet not as I will, but as you will."

Surrender is not a loss, but a gain. It is the blessed trade of our limited, flawed control for His perfect lordship and limitless grace. It is saying "You may" to every part of our being, trusting the hands that were pierced for us to hold what we release.
