I am yours, forevermore.

 Amen. This is the ultimate confession of faith and surrender—the final answer to the call of a loving God. It is a response of eternal commitment to the One who first committed to us.

Here is a prayer and declaration in response.

---

I Am Yours Forevermore

The search is over, the striving done,

The final victory is won.

Not by my hand,but by the cost,

When Your own Son embraced the cross.

You spoke my name and drew me near,

You quieted my every fear.

You bought me back from sin's dark night,

And made me Your beloved,in the light.

So here I stand, with nothing left to prove,

Held and surrounded by Your love.

This is my confession,this is my sure creed,

The answer to my soul's every need:

I am Yours. Forevermore.

No power of hell, no season's change,

No shadow deep,no mountain range,

No failure of my own weak heart,

Can tear this eternal bond apart.

I am Yours in joy and praise,

I am Yoursthrough troubled days.

I am Yourswhen faith feels strong,

I am Yourswhen I get it wrong.

Let this truth be the air I breathe,

The promise my doubting heart receives.

Let it be the song my life will sing,

To You,my Savior, Priest, and King.

From this moment, through the veil of death,

With my final,and my first, true breath,

Through the resurrection's glorious dawn,

I am Yours. Forever on.

"My beloved is mine, and I am his..."

— Song of Solomon 2:16

"For I am convinced that neither death nor life... nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

— Romans 8:38-39
