Words based on Psalm 31
Music by Shannon Cerneka
Into your hands, Lord, I give my spirit.
Over to your will, I will surrender my life
Your are my rock, Lord. You are my fortress
Over to your will, I will surrender my life
I hear their wicked words
They echo in my head
They want to tear me down and take my breath
I say “You are my God”
You know I trust in you
You are the one who triumphed over death!
Be gracious to me, Lord
For I am in distress
My eyes are grieving and my body spent
Sorrow has worn me out
Affliction weakened me
My bones are brittle from my discontent.
