Grace - 1

Despite my sin and failures
Which haunted and taunted my spirit
He loves me deeply
With a love that is living
Thriving and giving
From the heart of the Master
Love that brings with it
Hope, faith and serenity
Love like this is penetrating
Enlivening, inspiring, thrilling
Love like this is beyond imagining
It is the answer to many prayers
Pleas for the feelings 
That bring assurance over doubt
Kindness over insolence
Warmth over the callous heart

Despite my faults and flaws
Everything that makes me wrong
He loves me with a love
That is so alive it sings a melody
Of joy, a promise of strength and wisdom
That comes from listening to that
Still, small voice… God’s breath
Breathing out a gentle direction
For keeping faith at the center
Of all that I enter into

Despite my worst wickedness
The crimes I’ve been overcome with
There is grace that He lends me
Thru faith where He sends me
To the empty tomb, where Jesus left me
A miracle that would give me the chance
To look toward the heavens and know
I will go there one day, after a time
After I have moved from this body
To the spirit world where the Father
Will welcome me into His haven
With the Son who gave me the hope
That keeps me focused on the moment
When I meet Him in the sky
Welcoming with an embrace
Filled with sincerity and mercy

And I praise Him…

There is…
Light that shines across my soul
Letting me know that I have discovered
God’s most joyful gift, 
The rich and vibrant place called
Heaven, the home in the sky
Where you and I are invited
After we leave this world knowing
That His Son has died for our souls
And He is there, awaiting us
The ones who have been filled with
The spirit that gives off that light
Of redemption, salvation, elation
Love that is unconditional!





Ephesians 2:8 - For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God
