“Surrender”
Carla Martin
5:11 Music Group (2011)

With a rocking beat that speeds along like a brakeless freight train, “Surrender” riffs on the irony that in the midst of trials, it is in surrendering that life begins. Don’t give up, she sings, give in.
First place winner at the 2002 McDonald’s Gospelfest, Evangelist Carla Martin now lives in Orlando, Florida and is married with seven (!) children. Her voice is reminiscent of Cher’s no-nonsense alto, which is appropriate to the content and message of the single.

THIS WOMAN OF GOD AND THE GROUP IS REALLY LIFTING UP THE NAME OF JESUS.SHE IS ALL ABOUT SOULS COMING INTO THE KINGDOM OF GOD. WE REALLY WAS BLESSED BY HAVING THEM MINISTER IN FORT LAUDERDALE.
Great song but the 5:11 Mix takes it to the next level.
