Surrender Novena
Surrender Novena: Embracing Peace in Divine Trust
Lyrics
Why do I confuse myself by worrying?
Questioning why worrying leads to confusion.
If I leave it up to You, there's peace in everything
Finding peace by entrusting matters to a higher power.
So I close the eyes of my soul, I turn away
Choosing to turn away from burdensome thoughts.
From the thoughts that burden me
Refusing to be weighed down by troubling thoughts.
And I say
Expressing surrender to a higher authority.
I surrender, I surrender
Repeated expression of surrendering to Jesus, the King.
To You, Jesus my King
Emphasizing surrender to Jesus.
I surrender, I surrender
Continued emphasis on surrender.
Take care of everything, everything
Entrusting everything to Jesus for care.
In my pain, I tell You the way I want to be healed
Expressing desires for healing while surrendering to divine will.
Instead, O Lord, heal me as You want
Requesting healing according to divine will.
Your will be sealed
Accepting and sealing one's fate according to divine will.
When I see evil grow, the sick get worse
Observing the growth of evil and worsening illness, seeking calmness.
Keep me calm in this raging sea
Desiring tranquility amidst challenging situations.
And when You lead me on a different path
Willingness to be led on an alternative path by a higher power.
Like a child, I'll let You carry me
Willingness to be guided and carried by a higher power.
I surrender, I surrender
Reiterating surrender to Jesus, the King.
To You, Jesus my King
Continued emphasis on surrender to Jesus.
I surrender, I surrender
Reaffirming the surrender of everything to Jesus.
Take care of everything, everything
Complete trust in Jesus to care for everything.
When my sleepless self wants to control it all
Desiring control but choosing to rest in the ways and words of a higher power.
I rest in Your ways and Your words
Resigning control and entrusting needs to a higher power.
All my needs I give them to You
Belief in miracles when trust is placed in a higher power.
When I trust, You make miracles
Letting oneself be carried away by the grace of a higher power.
So I close my eyes
Being enveloped in the grace and goodness of a higher power.
I'm carried away
Belief that a higher power can handle seemingly impossible situations.
In the current of Your grace
Confidence in the capability of a higher power to take care of things.
And Your goodness
Reaffirming surrender to Jesus as the King.
When it seems impossible
Emphasis on surrender to Jesus.
You'll take care of things
Complete trust in Jesus to manage everything.
Yes, You will
Reaffirming complete surrender to Jesus as the King.
I surrender, I surrender
Continued emphasis on surrender.
To You, Jesus my King
Reiterating complete surrender to Jesus.
(Jesus my King)
Emphasizing surrender to Jesus as the King.
I surrender, I surrender
Continued emphasis on surrender.
Take care of everything
Reaffirming trust in Jesus to handle everything.
(Take care of everything)
Emphasizing surrender to Jesus.
I surrender, I surrender
Continued emphasis on surrender.
To You, Jesus my King
Reiterating complete surrender to Jesus.
(Jesus my King)
Emphasizing surrender to Jesus as the King.
I surrender, I surrender
Continued emphasis on surrender.
Take care of everything
Reaffirming trust in Jesus to handle everything.
(Take care of everything)
Emphasizing surrender to Jesus.
Oh, I surrender
Expressing complete surrender.
Oh, everything
Reiterating surrender of everything.
Oh, everything
Repeating the act of surrendering everything.
