Sara Groves - ‘Remember Surrender’

Remember surrender
Remember the rest
Remember that weight lifting off of your chest
And realizing that it’s not up to you and it never was

Remember surrender
Remember relief
Remember how tears rolled down both of your cheeks
As the warmth of a heavenly father came closing in

I want to do that again
Why can’t I live there
And make my home
In sweet surrender
I want to do so much more than remember

Remember surrender
Remember the peace
Remember how soundly you fell fast asleep
In the face of your troubles your future still shone like the morning sun

Remember surrender
Remember that sound
Of all of those voices inside dying down
But one who speaks clearly of helping and healing you deep within

I want to do that again
Why can’t I live there
And make my home
In sweet surrender
I want to do so much more than remember

Aren’t you thankful that God hasn’t based salvation on intelligence, looks, or talent? It’s not about us, it’s about Him. Here’s a lyric from the hymn ‘My Faith Has Found a Resting Place’ to remind us of some important truths of the Christian faith…

My heart is leaning on the Word
The Living Word of God
Salvation by my Savior’s name
Salvation through His blood

I need no other argument
I need no other plea
It is enough that Jesus died
And that He died for me

My great Physician heals the sick
The lost He came to save
For me His precious blood He shed
For me His life He gave

I need no other argument
I need no other plea
It is enough that Jesus died
And that He died for me
