I Say Yes

In the stillness, I hear You whispering What have You told me, Lord? Which way must I go? Where must I obey, where is Your hand leading From my own sight I turn, to Your perfect pleasing I’m being created by you, clay within Your hands Struggling in the tempest, yet held by Your commands Changing by Your Spirit, not by strength of mine Day by day You’re forming what will glorify — If I — I work it out with fear and trembling And I let You work in me You promise to — Give me the will, the power, the yielding To fulfill Your purpose, Lord, and set my spirit free Every knee will bow, every tongue confess But here and now I gladly volunteer — in joy, I say “Yes” Jesus Christ is Lord, to the Father’s glory In surrender I am recreated for You I have done what seemed right in my own eyes Chasing empty winds, building up my lies Now I lay it down, all my plans and pride Take the narrow road, walking by Your side In the wrestling, in the hidden fight You heal what’s broken, You restore what’s right Power to build what only You create Sanctify my heart, for Your name’s own sake I work it out with fear and trembling And I let You work in me You promise to — Give me the will, the power, the yielding To fulfill Your purpose, Lord, and set my spirit free Every knee will bow, every tongue confess But here and now I gladly volunteer — in joy, I say “Yes” Jesus Christ is Lord, to the Father’s glory In surrender I am recreated for You Not forced upon that final day But chosen now, I bow and pray Humbled like my Savior, obedient to the end From the cross to the crown, on You I depend Fear and trembling turn to holy awe Reverent joy breaks every chain in me You who began this work will see it through Lord, I give my all — I surrender to You I work it out with fear and trembling And I let You work in me You promise to — Give me the will, the power, the yielding To fulfill Your purpose, Lord, and set my spirit free Every knee will bow, every tongue confess But here and now I gladly volunteer — in joy, I say “Yes” Jesus Christ is Lord, to the Father’s glory In surrender I am recreated for You Today I choose with open heart — in joy, I say “Yes!” Jesus Christ is Lord, forever be adored In this surrendered life, I honor You, my Lord A re-creation progress… becoming complete… All for Your glory… at Your feet…
