Song it's funny she came up with this topic. There's within my heart a melody. Words from an old hymn I can't remember the rest. It makes me sad. I miss the old hymns. I surrender all. All to Jesus I surrender. That one I can remember. I need to remember.
Because I realize that I do need to surrender. Everyday. Every hour. Brings back another lyric. . . I need the every hour.
We hear stories of people with addictions and their comments are something like this. It's a daily struggle. One day at a time. One hour at a time. But why don't we Christians think the same way about our relationship with our Lord. Maybe you do. But I don't
I don't do what I want. Well that's wrong I do what I want. I do what my selfish spirit wants.
But what I want is to know him more and more. I want to seek him every hour. I want to fill my heart with a song. A melody that whispers sweetly to me. A melody that He sings to me.

I love that you bring up the hymns! There's a stanza from one that has been on repeat for me lately: "Prone to wander, Lord I feel it. Prone to leave the God I love." I'm in a season on wandering right now and that little lyric reminds me of how much I need my shepherd to guide me back home! Thanks for this today!
A lovely thoughtful post. It is often difficult to surrender all to Him who knows everything! But without Him we are lost souls. I like this message today. Thanks for sharing!
What a great tribute to the prompt "Song". Thank you for posting. I reminds me too to seek God every hour, not just in times of need. Have a blessed day!
I love hymns! They bring me so much comfort. Visiting today from the Five Minute Friday! Blessings!
There's within my heart a melody, Jesus whispers sweet and low. Fear not I am with thee, peace be still in all of life's ebb and flow.
I LOVE THAT OLD HYMN!!!!!!
Thanks for sharing and now I'll be singing it all day! Yay!
