Surrender

Sweet is the song 

that encircles those who surrender. 

As zillions of words created 

speak within 

as they dance across the heart 

to be chosen, 

the deep promises of God 

rule while nonresistance exposes 

the beauty of salvation. 

The Father is singing 

and the ears of surrendered ones 

hear the emotions 

and straight forward work 

of a busy and content God. 

You sense His look of passion 

as penetrated ugly lies melt 

that sold you the petty value 

of your heart. 

You see clearly His desire 

as it becomes the substance 

that touches all your pain.  

Difficulty hits 

as you work to return His stare 

for such power of love 

takes time to soak in.  

But like a song 

that rings one beautiful note after another 

with its own beautiful word 

riding upon its sound; 

soon comes the message He declares. 

All around you it circles 

like a tornado of mighty force 

love is, 

and you realize total surrender 

is the only move you can make. 

Now dancing in this wind of love, 

you are carried to be adored 

as His love sings.  

Walking with His angels; 

singing with Words 

that come from the presence 

of their devoted assignments. 

A journey set to hear 

Word upon Word 

that finds a picture 

of the One true great God, 

I become the color of His face.
