Title: Wretched Man Post by: willychuck on October 28, 2006, 11:16:32 PM Wretched Man
When I say "I love You Lord" Conviction points within A selfish, proud, ill-tempered man I see so much my sin I struggle just to look to You The One I call my Lord Hypocracy screams at me It's You I have ignored Yet in my heart I long to be Close and free and one As You have always and will be Together with Your Son My hope will always be in Him The message I have heard Is what You've started, You will finish It's written in Your word You have cleansed me from my sin Unworthy soul am I I've been washed, His precious blood And so to You I cry Remove my stubborn, stone-cold heart Replace it with another One that seeks not for it's own But seeks first for it's Lover I know You're not through with me I know You have a plan To change into the Son's image This proud, ill-tempered man So I put my hope in You And trust as I know how Looking forward to the cross I take hold of the plow And though I stumble and I fall Sometimes the fool I've played Your love and grace embraces me And comforts me You've stayed Times like this I always need A place where I can rest Safe, secure, within Your arms Like John upon Your breast It's here I find the grace I need And strength and mercy too To open up my heart and soul And say "Lord, I love You" Title: Re: Wretched Man Post by: nChrist on October 29, 2006, 11:07:50 AM Amen Willychuck!
I see this is one of your first posts, so WELCOME! (http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i160/tlr10/357/welcome.gif) While reading your poem, I was thinking, "JESUS CHRIST" is our All In All. I don't like to think about what this short life would be like without JESUS CHRIST. On the other side of the coin, I love to think about what Eternity with JESUS CHRIST will be like. I sincerely hope that you enjoy Christians Unite. Love In Christ, Tom Psalms 18:46 NASB The LORD lives, and blessed be my rock; And exalted be the God of my salvation, |
