This is a song I wrote about a year back, during a time I jsut felt empty, a little distant from God due to my own sin and desire; so I wanted to 'surrender' it all to Him.

Well, it's a one-man band for now. Me and my friends in singapore will probably work something out...I can't sing, so I only write songs. Hope you enjoyed the songs despite the terrible singing! Click on the "music" link on the right, and click on the "hi-fi" link to listen to the song. :)

Story behind the song
I wrote it when I was upset; sitting in front of the piano in my home I was kindof feeling rather emotional and decided to just pour out to God, and this is the song that came out of that outcry. I realised that "pleasure" coming from the world - in essence, selfish desires - would never satisfy me completely. Only the "joy" that comes from surrendering my life to Jesus Christ can make me complete...!
Lyrics
I Surrender Only you can understand, This emptiness I feel, Lord It's so real, Lord Only you could comprehend, Just how lost I am, Lord I'm so confused, Lord Cos even though I know you love me so My sinful nature keeps dragging me where I don't want to go Lord I want to be right where you are But my sin is tearing us apart... So I surrender I surrender I exchange my worldly pleasures, For your eternal Joy I surrender I surrender Cos only you can satisfy my heart I search but cannot find Something to satisfy my eyes, Lord I know it's you, Lord I try to quench my thirst But nothing seems to work, Lord I thirst for you, Lord Yesterday I prayed on bended knee But today I act as if your love has not freed me Jesus I don't want to hurt you more Help me walk into that narrow door....
