No More Guilt
by Barbara Philbrook

No more guilt no more worrying why,
I'm going to accept the future and praise my God on high.

I'm not going to analyze and pick things apart,
I'm not going to dissect the depth of my heart.

I'm going to just completely trust and obey,
that is how I am going to live day by day.

No more looking for the reasons why,
I can never answer it, so why even try.

No more trying to assist the outcome of life,
No more trying to resolve everyone else's strife.

I've known for a while this is what I should do,
but I still tried to help, still had a personal view.

No more, I surrender it all and accept whatever will be,
and know in my heart true peace is ahead you see.

Before I tried to keep out of it and give God control,
but as of today my surrender is from the very depth of my soul.

I give up, there is no good that I can in any way do,
the helping I've done has hindered what God in my view.

No more guilt no more dissecting,
just trusting God and enjoying His perfecting.
