In Your Full Control

Lord I’ve set my hand to the plow

the task which lies before me now
gives meaning to my worth
____
as each day is given to me
of life on earth to live
I pray that I shall be of use
my life to You I give
____
what other honor can there be
than serving You in love
by doing Your will here on earth
and soon to be above
____
may I never ever look back
nor lay my cross aside
it’s You Lord Jesus who I need
in You I will abide
____
if love could be measured
for what You’ve done for me
the universe is way too small
to count all it would be
____
humbly I submit to Thy care
no longer will I fear
for whatever reason You call
I pray that I will hear
____
all I ask is reassurance
to edify my soul
then I am mighty in Your hands
and in Your full control
