While I Was Out Sinning, God Waited For Me
While I was out sinning,
listening to things I should not have heard,
I rejected GOD’S SACRED WORD.
While I was out sinning,
looking for pleasures to gratify me,
I rejected GOD’S PURITY.
While I was out sinning,
telling lies to get riches and fame,
I rejected GOD’S DIVINE CLAIM
.
While I was out sinning,
touching things I should never embrace,
I rejected GOD’S HOLY PLACE.
While I was out sinning,
walking thru doorways that lead to death
I rejected GOD’S LIVING BREATH.
While I was out sinning,
God waited patiently many days
For me to reject Satan’s evil ways.
I kneeled before God,
Confessed each sin and
Prayed that he would take me in.
Then I felt God touch my heart
And say to me “never depart”.

Psalm 51:1-2: Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity and cleanse me from sin. For I
acknowledge my transgressions; and my sin is ever before me.
