Notes About The Poem
Written on March 3, 2026
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Buried Sin
Sometimes I feel confused and I know
I’ll reach for that cup that overflows
Overflows with love, joy and grace
Reminding me why I need His embrace
Embrace of One who saved my soul
There isn’t a doubt He made me whole
Whole so that nothing can ever take away
The beautiful light He shined down that day
Day when my heart was filled with His love
The kind of love that comes from God above
Above, there lives One who knows my pain
He makes a way when I’m walking in the rain
Rain that falls to remind me of my heart’s tears
And the One who silences all my darkest fears
Fears that haunt me with their urgent doubt
Seeking to dissuade me, but I know the way out
Out of the pain, out of the sorrow that abides
He brings peace to my life as He gently guides
Guides me through the shadows, into the light
Where I see my Father making all things right
Right with my God, right with my Savior
He always forgives me for the worst behavior
Behavior that tells me there’s still work to do
So I open my bible and meet the One I always knew
Knew in my heart that Jesus came to save
Even the worst sins, He sincerely forgave
Forgave me so that I can shine, white as snow
Because of the cross where His blood did flow
Flow so that I could know a peace that defeats the adversary
With forgiveness for all my sins, sins Jesus’ love did bury
