Lord, forgive me, for
times I try to protect and end up controlling.
Lord, forgive me, for
times I try to share and I don't share your heart.
Lord, forgive me, for
times I try to love and my love is not your love.
Lord, forgive me, for
times I try to live for you, and I fall short.
Lord, forgive me, for
times I try to make things right and only you can.
Lord, forgive me, for
times I try to be yours, and turn away.
Lord, forgive me, for
times I try to change only to repeat my offense.
I try, Lord. And that
is my problem. I try in my own strength.
I don't try on my own
today, Lord. I ask you to do this work in me.
I surrender all of me
to all of you.
In my surrender to
your will bring ALL your power to bear.
I try again today,
Lord, but I try in you alone.
When I try in you
alone, then it is no longer me. It is you.
What now is tried is
no longer mine.
It is yours, Lord,
and becomes your promise of all that I can be.
“My grace is
sufficient for you,” He whispers, “for my power is made perfect in weakness.”
