SURRENDER (Father Manny)

SURRENDER
(c)2003 Stephanie Durand

Are you tired?
Do you cry yourself to sleep at night?
Is the pain too deep in your life?
Have you lost...your family...your child...your wife?
Have the pieces of your life fallen apart?
Do you cry at night?
Do you feel alone? Do you feel lost in this world?
When you lay your head down...at night

Did you know when you lay your head down at night
That your heavenly father sees your tears
He feels your sorrow...he is so near

Surrender....

Did you know...that God feels your pain
Did you know...that God longs to wrap his arms around you again
He longs to help you pick up the pieces of you life
Save your family....your child....your wife

Some say that a man shouldn't cry
Some believe it's in a man
to fight the way he feels inside

But a real man surrenders his feeling
A real man can give it all up to God
When he can't fight anymore
and he's choked up inside
And he feels the tears about to come down
He can give it all up to God

He can surrender
He can give up the fight
It's alright, he can cry out to God

It takes a strong man to surrender
and not fight the feelings
he feels inside
To let the tears roll down his face
When he prays to God
Surrender
It's ok
You don't have to fight anymore
Let him into your life

Surrender to God
Surrender to God

Let it all come out when you pray to him
Let the tears...come down
Surrender your family, your child, your wife,
And at his feet,
Surrender, "your" life
