The Gift
The greatest gift I have ever received
Came to me the day that I first believed.
That Jesus Christ could save a man's soul
Cleanse any heart and make a body whole.
For twenty-eight years it was a gift unclaimed
All the while, my life, became more inflamed.
I was a troubled young man seeking an answer
For I'd just been informed that I had Cancer.
He healed my body and took away my dross
I knew then He loved me, even at the cross.
I was changed from Satan's boy,
to God's man.
