I Pray To Be Only Yours

Let it be known. I'm not usually a huge fan of Nicholas Sparks. I'M NOT A FAN OF NICHOLAS SPARKS. But I do have a soft spot in my heart for A Walk to Remember. While watching this movie the other week, I fell in love with the song "Only Hope" all over again. The lyrics of this song struck me. It's so beautifully powerful, if the recipient is God! It's actually the only way the song makes sense. I'm including the lyrics and the song itself here. Read and pray the song to Him. It's wonderful!

There's a song that's inside of my soul.
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again
I'm awake in the infinite cold
But You sing to me over and over and over again.

So I lay my head back down.
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only Yours. I pray to be only Yours.
I know now You're my only hope.

Sing to me the song of the stars,
Of Your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again.
When it feels like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that You have for me over again.

So I lay my head back down.
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only Yours. I pray to be only Yours
I know now You're my only hope.

I give You my destiny.
I'm giving You all of me.
I want Your symphony singing in all that I am.
At the top of my lungs, I'm giving it back.

So I lay my head back down.
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only Yours. I pray to be only Yours
I pray to be only Yours
I know now You're my only hope.
