I Only Have Eyes For You...: How?

How?

How?

How am I worthy of this trust?
How can you be so faithful?
How can I sit and do nothing,
When you give me Everything?
When you are my Everything?

How am I worth so much trouble?
How can You be so forgiving?
How can I hold so much in myself,
When You want me to come to You with all my burdens?

You are holy.
And I am wholly.
Wholly surrendered.
I am wholly Yours.
