No One Could Heal Me But You, My God
Convicted was my soul with humanity’s befallen verdict
Deliberately transgressing sovereign laws
Affirming carnal nature flaws…
Yet You, God Almighty, quickened my soul along divine edict.
Midst condemnation, my heart was terrified
Frightened to face death’s agonizing seizure
With horrifying sting of grave-pressure…
Still, You offered me redemption-grace, never will depart.
From wrath of hell’s torturing perseverance
Admonishing with unceasing mockery
Disabling triumphant zest by woeful misery…
In Your compassion, You granted me eternal deliverance.
Against threats toward perishing, grievously imminent
I found myself imprisoned, chained in hopelessness
Being guilty of iniquities and sinfulness…
My spirit, You braced upon Your forgiveness’ empowerment.
Saviour of mine, You deserved my thanks and worship
For caring for me so much, wondrously marvelous
Granting me genuine freedom, indeed miraculous...
Now and forever, You own me; I yield to Your leadership.
Conqueror with loving kindness, that’s You
Lord and Christ** of my life … mercifully ruling
In You, I’m protected around Your mighty sealing...
Against eternal sin-caused pandemic, no one could save me but You.
*Romans 7:25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord…
