David William Yost - Trade Your Filthy Rags

Why do I take just a cup from the ocean of God's great love?
Why do I think that's enough, when it's what I need most of?
Why do I live in such poverty, afraid to rush right in?
When the riches of God's great glory are offered to all who trust in Him

So bring to Him your brokenness and bring to Him your shame
Surrender your heart, your mind, and your strength
Trade your filthy rags for fine linen

Why do I take just a bit of the peace that comes from above?
Why do I stand and debate all the plans of the One Who Is Love?
Why do I live in such poverty, content to stay in my sin?
When the riches of God's great glory are offered to all who trust in Him

So bring to Him your brokenness and bring to Him your shame
Surrender your heart, your mind, and your strength
Trade your filthy rags for fine linen

Even the good things we've done with our lives can be filthy rags
For the Day will come when the fire will burn all the chaff away
But those who trust in the Lord will be clothed with His righteousness
And be filled with the fullness of God
So why do I bring just a cup to the ocean of God's love?

So bring to Him your good deeds and bring to Him your dreams
Surrender your life, your future, your plans
Bring Him your filthy rags, give Him your filthy rags
Trade out your filthy rags for fine linen
