Give Everything To Jesus

Jesus...  Do I know what it is to suffer and to sacrifice?
I've had most anything  I wanted that's "beautiful and nice."

I've been enjoying life each day rather happily.
With a beautiful home a new car and a family.

With all these things, who could ask for more?
But to sacrifice for Jesus?  Do I know what this is for?

Jesus told the rich man to sell everything and give to the needy.
But, I've been "living for myself."  And have rather been "greedy."

The cross of Christ in me...  Must have a daily effect.
Jesus gave his all for me.  I must never forget.

I remember the cross.  The symbol of suffering and shame.
I give everything to Jesus...  In humbleness to his name!
