Lord, my life to You I freely give, That my life through You I want to live.
Long ago on that special day,
My life to You I gave in forty-nine in the month of May.
I will never forget that day I came to You,
I asked You to forgive me, and gave me a new life too, All because on a cross one day for me You died, Only then could we be on the same side.
Jesus, You came and suffered so much pain, If You hadn't, in sin I would remain.
Now no longer do I live in sin,
I have Christ in my heart, He now dwells within.
I'm sorry You had to die, but were willing to do, Now I can live my new life through You.
You changed my life from darkness to light, Now there is no more darkness, no more night.
If You had said no and had not come to this earth, Then I would have never known of the new birth, Then there would be nothing else I could do but perish, And would never see the one I love and most cherish.
Lord, mold me that I might be more like Thee, Writing the poems You give to me, Without You there would not be one poem to write, To tell others Jesus loves them, He is the light.
Lord, all that I am or ever will be is because of You, In troubles, in sorrows, You brought me through, Now Lord since my life belongs to You,
I want to imish the work You gave me to do.

Are you angry and ready to throw in the towel?
And at God you are ready to scream foul?
You thought God would always be there.
But if He was, you were unaware.
You don't seem to ever get an answer when you pray.
Even when you pray day after day.
You think He no longer cares and you're ready to quit, Things keep going from bad to worse bit by bit.
Does there seem to be no more hope?
And all you can do is look, search and grope? There is certainly nothing to look forward to, And that with God you think that you are through.
You already know tomorrow will be as bad as today, Because your tomorrows always turn out the same ole way.
And you think you had just as soon be dead.
Since God you can't find, all alone you have to tread.
Do you wish the days ahead would be brighter?
And that somehow your burdens would be lighter?
Are you walking down a path that leads to nowhere?
And you don't seem to know anything any more for sure.
If I cast You aside, I could see why this came to be, You don't seem interested; that's the way it seems to me.
My life is like a withered bloom;
Where once was gladness of heart now there is only gloom.
Keep looking up, Jesus has always been there.
God promises He is with you even if you are unaware.
He sees and understands your every care.
Don't give up; soon eternal life with Jesus you will share.
