I Want To Know Christ
I was looking for:
Forgiveness
Mercy
Grace
I found:
Love
Hope
Faith
----------------------------
I have turned my back
on the life I was.
Made up of lint
and a lot of fuzz.
I have set a direction
to the foot of the Cross.
Keeping the good,
Discarding the dross.
The regrets of the past
No longer control.
I'm free to live and LOVE
without yesterday's toll.
Looking forward in FAITH
not forgetting the past.
Lest I should repeat
The bad I did last.
With HOPE in hand
I am pressing on home,
To finish the race.
I'll never more roam.
I want to know You Lord
from the words in RED
"Forgive me of failures
as I forgive those who fail me."
