Surrender
By Clyde E. Gumbs
 

Often life is so familiar

Life carries on predictably

And as we manage our existence

We only play for what we see

 

And when we look to build a future

That would be other than today

We base our vision of tomorrow

On all we've passed along the way

 

And when we live from day to day

From what we like, want, think and know

We never see tomorrow's wonders

Back to the past is where we go

 

But sometimes life is so demanding

Sometimes life brings us to our knees

And when all hope is nearly lost

We then pray to our deity

 

And inside this form of surrender

After we barely are alive

The grace of God will then deliver

All things required to survive

 

Imagine if we would surrender

Not merely hoping to survive

Surrender as a form of power

For all there is to be alive

 

The power of such bold surrender

Transforms life with velocity

True faith is all that is required

From now until eternity

 

Imagine if life was created

Free from what it had always been

A future free of all the burdens

A future where you really win

 

Surrender all you've ever known

For all that there could ever be

Surrender to the awesome power

Align with all divinity

 

And when you stand in bold surrender

Stand there with peace and dignity

Eternal faith will then deliver

All things that you could ever be

 

Faith and surrender are the answer

The power's offered constantly

Accept the sacred invitation

Surrender all with dignity
