I Surrender – Christian Hymn Song Lyrics & Chords

Lyrics

Here I am
Down on my knees again
Surrendering all
Surrendering all

Find me here
Lord as You draw me near
Desperate for You
Desperate for You

I surrender

Drench my soul
As mercy and grace unfold
I hunger and thirst
I hunger and thirst

With arms stretched wide
I know You hear my cry
Speak to me now
Speak to me now

I surrender
I surrender
I wanna know You more
I wanna know You more (2)

Like a rushing wind
Jesus breathe within
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

Like a mighty storm
Stir within my soul
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

Like a rushing wind
Jesus breathe within
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

Like a mighty storm
Stir within my soul
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

Like a rushing wind
Jesus breathe within
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

Like a mighty storm
Stir within my soul
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

I surrender
I surrender
I wanna know You more
I wanna know You more (2)

Song History & Meaning

Composer / Hymnodist: Matthew Philip Crocker

True surrender begins when we stop striving and simply bow our hearts before the Lord. When we fall to our knees in honest desperation, God doesn't turn us away; instead, He draws gently near to us. Yielding our entire lives to Jesus isn't a loss of control, but a step into His complete grace and peace. As you sing today, lay down every burden and trust that He holds your heart securely.
