Sixth Sense
You are far from perfect and I am sure you are aware of this
A subject you often neglect but a point you can’t miss
Your shortcomings are as clear to you as to everyone around
But I only have one fear and that is, you haven’t been found
Imperfect as they come, I made every mistake in the book
Some , even to say I’m dumb , if they didn’t take a second look
How often I’ve fallen, in adding to my own pile of shame
When, I heard Jesus calling saying He would take all my blame
My eyes opened wide, the amazement of such a thought
I would no longer be tried for all the pain that I had wrought
Soon tears filled these eyes which were now finally able to see
That was the day I came to realize that only Jesus can set you free
Still at times I fall but not nearly as much as before
In listening for His Call it makes it much easier to endure
But it’s that joy that I feel every time I speak His Name
Once you sense He is real, your life will never be the same
