No Longer Lost
Hebrews 12:29
“For our God is a consuming fire.”
Greater than we can ever dream
Sweeter than the best honey of the hive
More amazing than the most supreme
He’s the love that helps my soul thrive
Better than my lips could voice
He’s the light that shines so bright
His cross offers me a choice
He’s the grace that makes everything right
More beautiful than words can describe
A hope more faithful than even a mother
He’s the wonder only believing can ascribe
I’m so thankful for Him, He’s like no other
Him who created each one is a consuming fire
Because of His love – I, too, am consumed
By that fire who’ll consume and inspire
Hearts to give praise to the One presumed
To silence every fear, wipe away all tears
To fill the heart with love, the soul with belief
So that whatever comes, throughout the years
His peace will still the night, offering such relief
He is a consuming fire and because of love, I aspire
To give Him all my praise, with a heart who is amazed
By the love He blesses us with – love my heart can admire
Because it means I’m filled with Him who God raised…
From the tomb where He lay, waiting as hearts grieved
Remembering that love can win, over any sin
Forgiveness came to the souls who believed
As His fire burned, pouring out love within….
Each heart and soul were filled with His love
When they repented of sin and came to believe
In this Jesus who is that hope sent from above
To fulfill each scripture with a love that won’t deceive
I’m still thanking the One I love, this King of Kings
For His forgiving me for the sinner I was
Writing my name in His book so my spirit sings
Forgiven and loved, praising Him is my life’s cause
Because of Jesus, I’m forever offering my heart
Only God can truly know just how much it cost
To right my life – giving me a whole new start
Because of my Savior, I’m no longer lost
