Redemption Applied On My Spiritual Mirror

Right from my earliest years
the thought of God was there
thinking much of how I came to be
into this world showing your care

I always believed in you O God
You the divine being mighty is He
learning continually from your word
in this I read wholeheartedly I did agree

Read deep spiritual scriptural truth
many years later I saw your light
showed me my sin there since birth
your remedy of repentance for my plight

That crack in my mirror
showed up all of my sins
suddenly realised my need
redemption applied now wins

I came running to you Lord
received in your arms so warm
felt safe secure and satisfied
you are my God true to form

Now every day you teach me
your great truth more and more
learning to obey kneeling in prayer
seeking your face knowing your door
