My Sins Are Not Greater Than God's Love For Me

My Sins Are Not Greater
 Than God’s Love For Me!

My sins are not greater than God’s love for me!
His son bore my guilt that day
 he died for me!

My sins and shame, Christ bore on the cross!
Without him, I would be forever lost!

What matters now, is his mercy and forgiveness!
From a heart filled with tender kindness!

This savior, who bore all 
of my guilt and sorrow.
Will be there for me today and tomorrow!

I owe it all to Jesus!  My hands I humbly raise!
I give him a heart of thankfulness and praise!

He’s what I could ever hope for,
 and much more!
What he’s done for me, 
I’ll treasure and adore!

This same Jesus can do all this for you!
Today, his salvation is offered to you!
