The Ransom Paid

My Lord, what more need I ask of you? For you have left your throne of light Came to this place of shadows Wherein lies treachary And sin rules the days... Taking my place Soul redeemed By your Blood Were I to live a thousand lives Lay the worlds' treasures at your feet Perform stringent penance I could never return The ransom you paid... Crucifixion By your blood I am Free! ~*~

I was looking for one of your poems that you wrote from your heart and not for a contest, and I think I found it:) I couldn't have said it better, a beautiful expression of your grateful heart which makes it so very beautiful to our Father and the Lord. I have tears in my eyes now just knowing that you feel this way, Gods blessings on you Annaise. Favorites time!

Your profession of faith touched me, dear. Don't know if this comment will post. None of the others have been posting -- keep getting system errors. Love and Easter blessings, Carolyn
