Notes About The Poem
For Gospel Song Contest Sponsor: Regina McIntosh Date: 7/12/26

Gospel Song

Lord I'm just a sinner.
Do with me what You will.
You sacrificed Your life for me
But I'm a sinner still.

My eyes cannot behold You
Yet, in my heart I know You're there.
I come to You on bended knees
To ask forgiveness with a prayer.

Chorus:
I sing Your praises loud and clear
So every son of man may hear
That the Son of God is always near
And someday soon will reappear.

My soul awaits Your healing touch
So I may receive Your grace. 
Show me the path that I must take
That I might someday see Your face.

May You find me worthy
As a Christian on the mend.
I wandered years in darkness
But saw 'Your Light' in the end.

Chorus:
I sing Your praises loud and clear
So every son of man may hear
That the Son of God is always near
And someday soon will reappear.
