Just a prayer of gratitude.

You're such a good and loving God, To take such care of me. Though I don't deserve it, Still Your love is free. You came into a barbarous world, Steeped in sin's corruption; A world so vile it seemed to be, Bent on self destruction. You laid aside Your Glory, And disguised as a simple man, You bravely entered in the fight, To re-assert Your plan. You bought back all who are Your Own. You never flinched or wavered. You spilled Your precious Royal Blood, To reinstate God's favor. I wonder now could I withstand, What You willingly went through; And would again for just one man, If e'er You needed to. Could I ever be that brave? I don't think I could. It's only You within me, Lord. Only You are good.
