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.
