Father, I come
To give You thanks
For all Your mercy;
For all Your grace.
I’m overwhelmed
By all You’ve done.
Starting with the gift
Of Your only Son.
Who took my place
On that rugged cross.
To show true love
Comes at a cost.
When He arose
On that 3rd day,
Forgiveness’ price
Was fully paid.
My sins of the past;
My sins of the ‘morrow
Are washed away
As is the sorrow.
Your glorious plan
Doesn’t stop there.
New life is born
And it’s one to share.
To walk with You
In every step of life.
To seek the truth
And leave the lies behind.
Then life’s journey
Is to take my cross
To follow You
And love the lost.
Holy Spirit come
And give me strength.
Soften my heart
And build my faith.
To see the world
Through Your eyes –
Not to judge
But to give hope in life.
By leading them
To that rugged cross;
To show true love
Comes at a cost.
