GREAT KING, LOVING FATHER

AS I ENTER CAREFULLY,
THE THRONEROOM OF MY KING
MY HEART IS POUNDING IN MY CHEST
CAUSE HE SEES EVERYTHING.

MY HEAD HANGS LOW AND
MY FISTS CLENCHED TIGHT
I FEAR TO COME BEFORE MY LORD
WHO RULES WITH SO MUCH MIGHT

BURDEDNED WITH THE GUILT OF SIN
AND HEAVY LAIDEN WITH MY SHAME
I WISH THAT I COULD RUN A MILE
AND HIDE FROM ALL THIS PAIN

I FEEL LIKE I HAVE DISAPPOINTED
MY KING WHO REIGNS ON HIGH
AND AS I FALL DOWN ON MY KNEES
I CANNOT HELP BUT CRY

I START TO BEG FORGIVENESS
BUT BEFORE I CAN BEGIN
HE HOLDS HIS HAND UP AND
WITH THESE WORD HE SAYS:
“I FORGIVE YOU FOR YOUR SIN”

HE BECKONS ME CLOSER TO HIS THRONE
AND I CAN’T RESIST HIS CALL
I GET UP AND I RUN TO HIM
AND INTO HIS ARMS I FALL

THEN LOVINGLY HE LIFTS MY FACE
TO GAZE UPON HIS GLORY
HE SAYS: “MY CHILD, I LOVE YOU SO,
REGARDLES OF YOUR HISTORY”

HE HUGS ME TIGHTLY TO HIS CHEST
AND GENTLY STROKES MY HAIR
MY PAIN AND SIN FORGOTTEN NOW
AND I DON’T HAVE A CARE.

I KNOW MY FATHER LOVES ME
I AM HIS LITTLE GIRL
THERE IS NOTHING HE WONT DO FOR ME
IF I OBEY HIS WILL

I SIT WITH HIM NOW, EVERYDAY
AND TELL HIM EVERYTHING
AND HE SITS AND LISTENS CAREFULLY,
HE DOESN’T MISS A THING.

HE IS MY KING WHO REIGNS ON HIGH
WITH SO MUCH MIGHT AND POWER
BUT A FATHER TOO HE IS TO ME
AND ME? I AM HIS PRECIOUS DAUGHTER!!

The Sacrifice

The Sacrifice

Lord I have often thought
about how you suffered,
Nailed to that tree.
And I have often wondered
What if it were me?

I think of Judas and of Peter
One who betrayed, and one who denied.
And had I been in your shoes,
Would I have bled and died?

Could I have been the sacrifice
That could never guarantee
That the ones who I was dying for
Would give their lives for me?

But Your face was slapped,
And Your body broken
And Your blood was shed for me.
And You were nailed to that cross
So that I might be set free

Oh God I cannot put in words
What you have done for me
The price you paid for sin and death
That day on Calvary.

You bought my life with blood and tears
And saved me from this world.
And that is why I know that I
Will forever live with You,
My Lord.
