May we always feel His Love,

For God so loved the world
that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him
should not perish, but have
everlasting life.
John 3:16
The Hill
Last night as I knelt down
at my bed to pray
I was overwhelmed
with all God had given me that day.
I began to look back
at the yesterdays I'd been given
And I had to marvel
at why I had been forgiven.
I have done so many things,
too shameful to recall
And yet Jesus died
to make atonement for them all!
I know I'm so unworthy,
so much I've left undone
But to think I've been forgiven
by God's only begotten Son!
When I look into the mirror
it takes away my breath
Because I am a sinner
and responsible for His death,
For wasn't it my sins too
that nailed Him to the cross?
So why did Jesus die for me
knowing I am nothing but a loss?
How could He love this wretch I am,
this wretch I'll always be?
Why would Jesus give His life
for a sinner such as me?
God spoke to my heart
in a voice tender and mild,
"All this I have done for you
because you are my dear child.
Your sins have been forgiven
for Jesus took your place."
On Calvary this was done for me
by the Father's grace.
Though I don't deserve it,
never have and never will,
I know I have been forgiven
because the cross upon the hill.
