It's not a mysterious wind,
And it's not the thunder rollin' in;
It's a spirit that I feel within that's callin'
I understand but I can't explain
Now I see love in a different way
And with a single leap of faith, I'm fallin'
Into your loving arms
Showing no resistance,
There's a peace that flows over me
Sweet surrender, love me tender
You have captured my desiring heart completely
Sweet surrender, yours forever
I will gladly give my all to you
Receive me oh lord, I am ever yours
Your love offers no escape,
But I don't feel the need to run away
My heart has found a place to stay here with you
Nothing else could satisfy
The deep void that I had inside
From all the worldly battles I had lived through,
Now here in your loving arms,
I have gone the distance
I will rest my soul in your embrace
Sweet surrender, (surrender) love me tender (tender)
You have captured my desiring heart completely
Sweet surrender, (surrender) yours forever (forever)
I will gladly give my all to you
Receive me oh
Yes, I have gone the distance
I will rest my soul in your embrace
Oh, oh, sweet surrender, (surrender) love me tender (tender)
You have captured my desiring heart completely
Oh lord, I am ever yours
Oh lord, I am ever yours
