Like the First Time
Oh my God! My King and Lord!
Here now my cry through my tears.
I fall to my knees late this night,
To greet you like the first time!
You've opened up my eye's once more,
Defeating my fear of life's plight.
My Lord Jesus!
So long you've held me!
Quelled my anguished screams!
You took the pain alone.
Suffered in full the Cross,
So only it's shadow passes over me.
Once more I give my life to you!
I cannot do it alone.
But with you I'm never alone.
You've blessed me beyond all measure,
And will not hold my debt to me,
Reminding me what I've always known.
You are the way, the truth, the life.
The Alpha and Omega.
The Start and End of me.
All that I am is of your design,
And so should my life be.
You know my heart better than I.
Help me.
Guide me.
Say yes.
Say no.
I wait.
Patient.
Because,
I know,
You love
Me.
