Defer to God

I do defer to God because He knows
much more than I do, He knows everything,
I am so ignorant, and how it shows,
He brings so much compared to what I bring.

Since God is love, to Him I do defer,
what I have felt of love is what He’s shown,
His love has come to me so strong and sure,
I’ve tried to take and make His love my own.

And I defer to God for strength and grace,
I only am as strong as He makes me,
to gain His grace, I need to give Him space
for prayer, repentance, and humility.

To have all these, what makes the difference?
In faith to choose them free with deference.
