In brokenness I must accept
That I cannot pay my own debt
I have no good no righteousness
That I can bring to You
So here I am abandoned
Reliant on Your grace alone
Freely and wholly given
I will cling to You
So I cast myself completely
Completely at the mercy of Your love
And I hold fast to Your promise
All I need to live was given at Your cross
Jesus You have me
I cast myself completely
Jesus You have me
I am Yours alone
All I have is my surrender
All I have is yes and Your amen
Your beauty rends me helpless
I can’t go back again
For King and kingdom come
For all that’s yet to come
Until Your sweet return
I cast myself completely
