Your perfect love casts out all of my fears.
Why did I live in my strength all these years?
Deceived myself that it was all in me,
that positive thoughts will help me live free.
I bought the "package" that promoted my efforts,
to experience life's best depends on my exerts.
But the cycle of bad habits remained,
I turned away dejected and ashamed.
Now I get it, only you can transform,
and that you did not call me to perform.
You call me to lay it all before you,
and repent of all that I've held on to.
Such sweet surrender breathes your life in me,
to live by your Spirit for your glory.
