As a pencil is bent to the place of snapping
So is my soul in it's constant state of nagging.
I know I've had trouble in letting go
In surrendering to You and giving You full control.
But... Finally, I'm there.
I've let go... I give You Your role.
Thank You for Your ever-lasting support.
Your never ceasing, ever faithful help.
Why did I hold on so hard?
Why couldn't I just let go?
Works mentality which I thought had gone
Left me wondering what the next task was.
Fear of failure kept me down on my knees.
Not before You, but the destroyer of me.
Lord, be my portion. Be my delight.
Be my everything in this night.
I'll need the help - as You very well know.
'Cause resting in You's not my default thought.
Fight or flight's all I've ever done.
Renew my mind - change my sight.
Let me see through Your eyes
And patiently wait as I rest in Your grace.
