the stand

this sums up the cry of my heart,
a heart longing to be in complete unity with her Father.
i have no other choice after all that my Lord has done for me,
but to stand completely abandoned and surrendered to Him,
gladly,
joyfully,
and most importantly,
whole-heartedly...

"You stood before creation
eternity within Your hand
You spoke the earth into motion
my soul now to stand

You stood before my failure
carried the Cross for my shame
my sin weighed upon Your shoulders
my soul now to stand

so what can i say,
what can i do,
but offer this heart, o God,
completely to You?

so i'll walk upon salvation
Your Spirit alive in me
this life to declare Your promise
my soul now to stand

so what can i say,
what can i do,
but offer this heart ,o God,
completely to You?

so i’ll stand
with arms high and heart abandoned
in awe of the One who gave it all

so i’ll stand
my soul Lord to You surrendered
all i am is Yours"
