Here Today
Because of you I am here today
And I should thank you everyday
No way have I deserved your love and mercy
Why? You didn’t have to die for me; I sin every day
You willingly chose death and humiliation so that I could be free
You stared death in its face
Nothing, not even death’s vice grip could hold you down
You paid the ultimate price to show me love
Still I ask why. You could have let justice be served
But the power of your love overcame that
I don’t know if anything could make me do what you did for me
To die for another out of love or even to save
I don’t know what it is like to die for one much less all
I can’t imagine what the pain of the sin for one life is
Compile everybody’s sins during their life. How?
How could you do it? How could you go on knowing everything you did?
Thank You. Because of you I am here today…
AMEN
