I’m a simple sinner Saved by God’s grace I’m not always a winner In the righteousness race I’m a simple sinner Who reaches toward the light More like a beginner Than one who is in a fight I’m a simple sinner Filled with love from above God’s living quiver Who knows more about love I’m a simple sinner One who knows I’m wrong I don’t let it make me bitter But pray it makes me strong I’m a simple sinner Alive with the living word I’m definitely no quitter From the Savior, I’ve heard I’m a simple sinner Willing to go to any lengths In order to be a true giver Of all that God grants me in strengths I’m a simple sinner Who welcomes God’s inspiration From others I may differ In my love for God’s creation

According to the Bible if being born again you are not a simple sinner, that's who you were. Now you are a new creation, dead to sin and alive to God. You are made righteous, and justified.Jesus paid the debt, so you are now made free from sin. You may sin, but all is forgiven, because Christ, was made sin for us. The emphasis is on who you are not who you were.

We are all simple sinners; it takes a courageous person to say that. And penning it? Fabulous!

Interesting and, I believe true: If one's life is devoted to G-d, then either you walk in His Path, or you don't. It's not really so complex---provided you know what that Path is, of course... Gracefully penned, Gina! Peace and Joy, Gershon
