Lord, I Offer My Life to You
All that I am, all that I have
I lay them down before you, oh Lord
All my regrets, all my acclaims
The joy and the pain, I’m making them yours
Lord, I offer my life to you
Everything I’ve been through
Use it for your glory
Lord I offer my days to you
Lifting my praise to you
As a pleasing sacrifice
Lord I offer you my life
Things in the past, things yet unseen
Wishes and dreams that are yet to come true
All of my heart, all of my praise
My heart and my hands are lifted to you
Lord, I offer my life to you
Everything I’ve been through
Use it for your glory
Lord I offer my days to you
Lifting my praise to you
As a pleasing sacrifice
Lord I offer you my life
Lord, I offer my life to you
Everything I’ve been through
Use it for your glory
Lord I offer my days to you
Lifting my praise to you
As a pleasing sacrifice
Lord I offer you my life
The song is one of the songs that I love. Actually I heard this song maybe from a long time before. It was only during one worship service was PSKJP I know this text song. Previously I only know the rhythm and the chorus only. If you look at the lyrics of the song, I’m sure you’ll understand why I so love this song.
This song is a song that shoes a response to surrender completely to God the Almighty. Humans basically can not do anything without the help of God. If we go somewhere, we might not be safe, if God has not witnessed. We can not eat, if God does not give us the energy to work and earn money. We can not go up classes and exams success if God did not give the wisdom to learn. So basically, any activity carried out was never outside the plan and help of God alone. Therefore, we should handed everything into his hands. Regret over a failure, the pride of a success, all acclaims, the joy and the pain, wishes and dreams, desire and hope is planned, even all the future should be gave to God.
Trusting in God does not mean we pray and give up everything just like that, then we are silent and do nothing. Waiting for God’s work. It’s called surrender. History proves that the surrenders does not give any impact. Thomas Edison never gave up doing an experiment to create the light bulb. There is still much more evidence about successful people because it never gave up. Surrender here is willing to follow all the plans and the call of God in this life. If we want to plan, we pray to God first. If you want to go, pray to God first. All activities should be preceded by praying to God. Only then do the best we can do. Remember that!
Let do your best
And God will do the rest
