I Give My Life to You

OK,
I am ready to give my life to you, Lord.
Teach me to let go of myself,
To let go of my car, my TV
And my computer.
So I can follow you.

Teach me to love;
Love with my whole heart,
Love people who hurt me,
And love those who can't love.

Teach me to pray;
Pray with my whole heart,
Pray for people who hurt me,
And pray for those who don't know how.

Teach me to believe;
Believe in you,
Believe that you are always with me,

You are always there at my side.
Teach me to be thankful;
Thankful I was given Life,

And thankful for everything.
Teach me your will;
Your will for me,

So I can be of service to you.
So I can follow you, Lord.
