Rekindling a Heart of God
So what to do, and what to not?
It seems so often we forget,
that he has paid the price for us,
so we can enter in and say -
'Redeem my soul, make my heart free,
that I may always, love thee, love thee!'
So why, so crushed, so lost, so lonely?
His love for us transcended death,
and unto us this time of year,
we can,and do, reflect and say -
"My Lord, thank you, in every way,
that I can live another day!"
And whence my time does come to end,
I thank you Lord that I have led,
a life in you, my present friend. -
Who carries me when I am weak,
and grants me grace when I am meek,
and gifts me words so I may speak.
Thus soul, alive, in Him, can say -
"Death has no sting, for you have freed,
my soul, from sin. I enter in!
For you alone, make life, well lived,
through you alone, is an eternal gift.
That makes a way for me to live,
to share Christ's nature and to give,
unbound, gentle and carefree love,
till, I reside, with you, above!"
