Lord, I Offer My Life To You

A song that reminded my of the times I when I was down, when I was in trouble, when I was lost, I know that God is near by my side to help me through my troubles. 

And especially with the things that are going on: indecisive confirmations for a very important meeting, feeling trapped alone in a situation where there's little help I can get... but, I'm glad that I went for the EMPOWERED Youth Gathering just a while ago and this song was sang. It reminded me of the times back in Catholic Student Society in Curtin where I used to be involved with the Music Ministry. I does take away the burden on my shoulders after spending sometime in the meeting, singing praises to God.


Song by Don Moen
I Offer My Life

All that I am, all that I have
I lay them down before you, oh Lord
All my regrets, all my acclaims
The joy and the pain, I'm making them yours

(Chorus)
Lord, I offer my life to you
Everything I've been through
Use it for your glory
Lord I offer my days to you
Lifting my praise to you
As a pleasing sacrifice
Lord I offer you my life

Things in the past, things yet unseen
Wishes and dreams that are yet to come true
All of my heart, alll of my praise
My heart and my hands are lifted to you

(Chorus)
Lord, I offer my life to you
Everything I've been through
Use it for your glory
Lord I offer my days to you
Lifting my praise to you
As a pleasing sacrifice
Lord I offer you my life

(Bridge)
What can we give
That you have not given?
And what do we have
That is not already yours?
All we possess
Are these lives we're living
That's what we give to you, Lord

(Chorus)
Lord, I offer my life to you
Everything I've been through
Use it for your glory
Lord I offer my days to you
Lifting my praise to you
As a pleasing sacrifice
Lord I offer you my life
