I Surrender All

Vain Jangling
I surrender all.

There is a hymn Christians sing, entitled, “I Surrender All.”
It starts with, “All to Jesus I surrender. All to him I freely give.”

We promise to love and trust him, in his presence daily.
We promise to forsake all worldly pleasure.

We ask him to make us wholly his, and to fill us with the Spirit.
That we may know his power, as we surrender all to him.

The vain jangling comes in when the voices sing hollow words, and walk out having surrendered nothing but maybe an hour of their week.
