Truly, I'm a great sinner
Tainted with dark spots of evil
Corrupted by sin itself!
Death, the greatest toll
For my soul born flawed with darkness!
From the start of disobedience
Wanting to be as gods and
Forsaking their walk with God
Did evil had penetrated the very heart of man
Causing eternal burden to you and I!
We are damned. All of us!
No worth of walking the streets of gold
Not of the littlest worth to enter the pearly gates
And dwell sweetly in flawless eternity!
Yes we are, on the fast race to the abyss.
But God, of His great love and mercy
Did His Son came and died for me!
As to fulfil the prophecy, He walked the earth
Lived a man's life and served like a servant
He was the living Messiah.
His blood shed on the cross of Calvary,
The pain He felt on the hands of man
The mockery and crown of thorns
While angles stood horrified waiting for His
Command to wipe all evil out - all was for amazing love and mercy!
He gave up the ghost
And the temple veil ripped in two.
And lo, in 3 days did He arise
Conquering death and
Shattering evil on their feet!
He is risen and so is the hope for all!
He sacrificed His life for me to gain mine.
And yes, by grace I am saved.
I knelt and sobbed.
I poured my heart in a manner I would never do to anyone else.
I repented of my sins.
I asked for forgiveness.
I asked for Him to be my personal Savior.
I asked for a new life
And an eternal one with Him.
The peace and joy I felt within
Made my heart grateful and full of hymns!
The lightness and hope He's given me
Has inspired me greatly, living life with
The likeness of Him.
I'm a new creature in Christ!
Toiling has been harder but I've been stronger.
I rest each time when the moon shines in the sky
With a smile on my wrinkled face
Forever thankful for my wonderful Savior
And looking forward to my heavenly home.
