How could you love a sinner like me?

You know the things I've done

You know it all and still love me

But how could I know this and try to push you away?

You created a universe

You created an Earth with nearly 8 billion inhabitants and still you find time for me

I know I'm not worthy of it

But you made me worthy through your son

You make the rise and setting of the sun

How could I push you away?

I thought I was too far deep

I thought a standard was required of me and I couldn't fill it

I tried to run and hide

Then I realized that without my relationship with you all I felt was death

You said you'd always love me no matter what

I still can't believe how far Jesus went for me

But forgive me for my faults

I'm the chief of sinners

But maybe that's why you saved me

Was to show just how far you could reach and how far your love could span

Yet I know as far as I've run

I know it couldn't scratch the surface of your eternal love

I hope my salvation reveals your Glory

not mine

You used me to show your love and you allowed me to be a part of the salvation of others

But none of it was ever me

It was all you

Because my hands were on the wheel I would've crashed

I wouldn't even be here

I don't know how I could ask you this but...

Take this life and make a message...
