~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Though I long to be perfect,
So that God will see…
How much I love and respect,
When I fall on my knee.
Though my heart is frail,
And my failures so very real,
I know a God who isn’t for sale,
So my pains He can always heal.
Though I’ve been called ‘hypocrite’,
I know that love can overcome.
Far from faultless, I must admit…
Sometimes I feel like the lowest scum.
Though I believe, praying and praising,
There are times when I let Him down.
I seek, yet sometimes forget how amazing…
It is to know a love that turns the sinner around.
Though I feel fear and know dark’s shadows,
I remember that Jesus forgives all my wrong.
He doesn’t forget me and assures me He knows…
When I need His grace, His kindness, His song.
Though I’m a Christian - know that I fail.
But, He never leaves me to wallow in doubt.
I’m such a sinner – He should send me to hell.
But, because He is love, He made a way out.
Though I fail Him daily, He still understands.
His love never forsakes – I love Him from my soul.
Whatever comes, I’m so glad I’m in His hands,
Where I’ve found the grace who makes me whole.
