His Kiss of Love
You died for my sins,
While I was yet a sinner,
You washed the darkness
Away
You came to me while
I was impure, You came
To me, and you alone
Made me clean
You gave me a new hope
Of brighter days, when
You allowed me to eat of
Your living bread
You brought me life,
And wholesome was this
New beginning, when I
Was no longer counted
Among the world’s
Spiritual dead
You died for my many
Sins showing me a true
Love which embraced my
Spirit, teaching me
What life will be like
Each day when it’s shared
With your grace and love
Which now sets me free
Genuine and selfless
Moments now give birth
To a special joy deep
Within…
The moment of acceptance
When one truly turns to
You, causing a new life
To now blossom and begin
Happens when one chooses
The path leading from
Darkness and awakens to
Make the choice to enter
Into Your light
If I am to be like You
I must learn to humble
Self and share with others
The grace which fills my
Life with delight
There are many needing the
Soulful nourishment in their
Lives which sets true seekers
Of your amazing grace free
I thank You for this
Life blessing and the
Priceless spiritual
Kiss of Your amazing
Love which I need…
And know from this day
Forth, You are the only
One, whom my heart and
Spirit will be thinking
Of
And each new day my prayers
Will glorify the greatness
Of the One true Living God.
(Written 1972)
