I SURRENDER ALL

Jacob Sooter and i wrote a new version of 'I Surrender all'. Same verse lyrics but with a new melody - and entirely new chorus and bridge.

If you can get past my pitchy vocal through the board mix, you get the idea of the song. It was received better than we thought (not all our new songs are received well!). It's one of those hymn re-makes that our people caught onto immediately and embraced.



all to Jesus, i surrender
all to Him i freely give
i will ever love and trust Him
in His presence, live

all to Jesus, i surrender
humbly at His feet i bow
worldly pleasures, all forsaken
take me Jesus now.

I surrender all
I surrender all
all to You for all You've yet to do
I surrender all

all to Jesus, i surrender
now i feel the sacred flame
oh the joy of full salvation
glory to His name

come fire, come rain
come joy or earthly pain
Lord, hear me when i say 'You are worth it'
and if this offering costs me everything
Lord hear me when i say 'You are worth it,
You are worth it, You are worth it all'
