You are the Ruler

Lord

You give based on who You are

Not by anything that I deserve.

Lord

it is not by self effort

Or by any merit of my own

but...

You are the Ruler and the King of the universe.

It is Your word that will last.

You are the Master and the Shepherd of the flock.

It is not my will

but Yours

that stands.

And You are in charge.

Lord

even though I tend to doubt

I believe Your heart for me is good

and

Lord

I know You do all things well

So I offer myself willingly

cause...

Lord

I trust in Your perfect will

Because all Your thoughts surpass my highest.

Lord

I may never understand

Why You act the way You do

but I know...

Lord

thank You for Your good pleasure.

I can trust that all You do is for it.

So

if it makes You happy

Lord

I will step aside to let You be my God.
