A Sinner's Prayer

today I boldly state that I am a sinner
and I vow to make God's daily bread my only dinner
I accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Personal Savior
and will abide by His teachings and demonstrate godly behavior

and when I say this  prayer I vow to repent and atone
to forever give all the honor and praise to His heavenly throne
I 'm now a part of the body of Christ of which God is the head
and as I recite this prayer my life will now be spirit-led

I ask the Lord Christ to forgive me of all my sins
and for the power of the blood to make me clean again
for with the sacrifice that occurred on Mount Calvary
this prayer of salvation will give me the victory
