In the Totality of Surrender
by Michael Doyle

I'm thanking God that I'm never alone.
Like a moss of love, I roll the stone.
Attesting to my faith and fealty,
I give our Lord my devoted loyalty.

I'm thanking God that he's fixed my attitude.
I now face the world with true gratitude
For the holiness that I now serve.
I have more righteousness than I deserve.

God's love is great and growing deeper.
He is, without any doubt my trustworthy keeper.
Through Him, my heart has been made whole
Cured of its sorrow as His love heals my soul.

The Lord above in all of His thunder,
Rules and comforts all that are under
His rule as I stand in my total surrender.
My heart has become wholly warm and tender.

My love reverberates like an echo,
As I step up and out from the world's shadow.
I am freed from the evil of the deceiver.
From salvation, I have lived life as a believer.

In the murmurs and whispers, I have known love,
Turning my adoring eyes toward heaven above.
Tell me, death, what sweet victory has begun
Now that I am devoted to the Father, Spirit and the Son.
