I’m no scholar
I don’t know many things
I’m not so intelligent
That I can pass every test
I’m not a sage
A specialist or doctor
I don’t research all the details
Or have great thoughts
My intellect isn’t rewarded
With trophies or honors
I’m a simple woman
With humble beginnings
Modest ideas and unpretentious
Dreams… I am meek
Unsophisticated and unassuming
I’m uncomplicated, plain
And totally straightforward
But I know..
Beyond the shadow of a doubt
Jesus came to bring me
A way out of sin and immorality
He came to make a way
Where no way had ever been
He was nailed to a tree
Where He hung until death
Came to take Him away
Into the shadows of its grip
In three days, He arose
From the grave
Reminded us that He brings grace
A second chance, a new way
All we need to do is pray
For forgiveness and our sin
Will be pardoned
So we can speak with God
And He will answer
Our heart’s yearnings
He will conquer
All our fears and tears
With His gentle love
That colors our whole world
In kindness, hope and joy
Faith that forever abides
On the heart, soul and mind
Where our love resides
And where His light abides
Stirring our feelings to delight
In the blessing of a heavenly Father
Who loves us with a love
That pierces the darkness
And lights up the heart
With peace that is alive
Dancing through the night
Freeing our soul with insight
Into the wonder of a faith
That believes His way of grace
Gives the wisdom to praise
The One who made a way
The One who we say
Is the answer to our prayers
The reason we have faith
The assurance of our salvation
Inspiration to always praise
The One who is our Savior!
