Never Again

It’s just as if he wants me down
In the pit of pain to suffer again
Right within me I see him frown
Just to scare me to succumb to him again. 
 
How could I, peace lose: a great loss
When the savior have saved me form shame and pain 
How could I neglet the rugged cross
Where the savior was scourged, smitten and slain.
 
This my heart forever will be God’s 
And never will I leave it to be tempter’s gain
For I have made up my mind and endorsed
Heaven as my surest again.
 
In the earth beneath and heaven above
My lot will be the king of glory
More than what I can buy is unending love
And more of him will I see when I appear in his glory.
