The Day I Gave My Life To Jesus

The Day I Gave My Life to Jesus...

I was thinking about something
 the other day.
I was looking for the
"right words to say."

I was thinking about a time
I was filled with sin.
That day I became born again.
A passion for Jesus that
I once had.
Excitement in my life,
and a heart so glad.

A love for Christ
overwhelmed my soul.
I loved Jesus-for he had
made me whole.

I don’t know the Lord
I once knew.
Reading God's word,
I no longer do.

What has happened to me?
I'm so ashamed!
I'm an embarrassment to
Jesus' holy name. 

 Jesus, on my knees
I humbly bow.
Please change my life!
I need you now!

By your word, transform
me deep within.
I confess to you my backsliding sin.

I re-commit my life NOW! Yes I do!
And by your love, I'm made
BRAND NEW!
