No one knows how it feels To be perfect, to be without sin No one knows how it is to be faultless Flawless, the finished work God is still working on each of us He isn’t finished… we are not complete When we are whole, without imperfections We’ll be there with Him, in a home called heaven, So sweet that homecoming will be! No one knows what it means To be perfect, to be impeccable No one knows how it feels to be exactly What He made us to be, entirely whole, exact.., Totally unspoiled, blameless and sinless God is working on our hearts and souls Filling up our holes with light that pours forth When we smile, when we cry, when we try Light that like liquid hope, raining down through us When we need to share our love, our gifts, our dreams Everything that stirs up the wonder and peace That God has inspired within our souls, our spirits No one knows what it means to be perfect No one who has ever lived has experienced this feeling Except for the One He gave us to be the sacrifice for sin, The Savior, the man, the king, Jesus Christ… The reason I love and live and give, the reason I am… Certain that this light pouring from my spirit Is a light that began when Jesus Himself turned on the spigot Warming my heart, filling my soul and showing the world That His love is forevermore. His love is an open door His love is the reason I know… Perfection is a word Only Jesus can truly know or understand or represent Only Jesus knows the meaning of completion Only He could say the words, “It is finished”!

If I were finished glorious it’d be to become whole and rid of impurity. A wonderful faithful free verse Regina… Blessings, Belle
