Callous Me

CALLOUS ME

The very Word that giveth light
And understanding
Leaves me tonight
And sends a grievous judgment.

Oh! That I had heed Your Word
And worshipped You as God and Lord
But lo! My ways led me astray
And I have been lost from then till date

How much I despised You
And travelled as far as North to South
And grateful for Your eternal love
I plead that we be one as before.

For herein lies my hope
That when I call, You answer me
And I rejoice in this truth
That You can restore a callous me.
