Although I walked thoughtlessly Beneath the doctrines and sciences of men And all the path I trail led to rust Like the scriptures speaketh stoutly The tail of every dust is rust Yet still I laid beside him Like one of his darling grungy garments Elected out of the trivial
An inexplicable love I doubt men had shown in the histories Such a great mystery of love For even in my malodorous transgressions and atrocities Did he prize and pride me into his waters And washed me thoroughly of my smirch;and made me whole
I reminiscent the deeds of old When I stride in the midst of the sadducees and pharisees Wallowing the mire The envious glares in my eyes,deceitful tongue And the felonies that pitch tents on my heart Yet he never let me by or alone In the tides of death nor drown into the deep abyss
What a love I've found with no bounds A love that crowns the tramps And make them champs A love that shove all iniquities Dear Jesus thanks for your love Like a flowing stream I lie tranquil in its showers Like a flower,and quail not What a lov-u Amen
