Boyce Brown
Boyce Brown (April 16, 1910 – January 30, 1959) was an American jazz dixieland alto saxophonist born in Chicago, Illinois.
Brown worked with Wingy Manone, Paul Mares and Danny Alvin. His best-known recordings are a 1935 session with Paul Mares and his Friars Society Orchestra and a 1939 session with Jimmy McPartland & his Jazz Band, which was first released as part of Decca's Chicago Jazz album. In both sessions, Brown demonstrates a driving, harmonically advanced style. In 1953 Brown entered a monastery, and returned in 1956 to release his one and only album as Brother Matthew, backed by a band organised by Eddie Condon.

Surrender
by: Peyce Byron1st Verse:
Dupe Dupe, yeah yeah,
Some people try to tell me that I'm wasting my time
Some others think I've lost my mind;
Not there is where some try to tell me you are,
They don't know you're my Guiding Star;
And I don't think I'm wasting time
'Cause your Word tells me I am yours and You are mine
Chorus:
Surrender to Jesus - Just let go
Give Him complete control
He loves you so
Surrender to Jesus - God's only Son
He will provide whatever you need
Right until the day is done
2nd Verse:
Dupe Dupe, yeah yeah I wanna know,
Do you, only trust the things you can see?
Do you say, "I only rely on me?"
So you stay locked up with your pride and your fears;
While Jesus lingers oh so near
So just admit things are way off track
Give your life to him and see what you get back
Chorus
Bridge: Surrender - all your life to Jesus today
Chorus
