He sobbed as I finally packed out
The words he spoke to me never faded out
I knew he was good and his love abounded
But Him, I was soo determined to abandon

The world promised me pleasures, happiness, joy and more
At last I am free as the wind. Everywhere I desired; I turned
I was consumed by obsession to the core
Life was good ; I was on the road of no return

Soon my youthful strength was wearing off
I wasted it all on Immorality and lust
The seal of my redemption tore off
My glory and grace was shrinking so fast

Then in the midst of my pain and regret ,
I remembered his last words to me
My loving arms, you know are always open wide
Just then I turned and saw how deep into sin I was.

Calling preacher men and the christ likes old fashioned,
One said "akoda na wode3, wo be nyini aba be to"
"Ampara ampara nsu menyin"
Na maba ab3 to nso"...

Still wallowing in my pain , I remembered a scripture
Isaiah 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD:
Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow;
Though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool

So with boldness in my heart I took the greatest step of my lifetime
I went back to the father through the son in prayer and cried
I cried my heart out before him and he heard me
He gave me back the joy of my salvation the; holy spirit

His arms were indeed widely opened
He received me with joy as my life companion
He gave me peace , joy , hope and all I could ever need
My heart was overjoyed for in him I found rest at last

I took a great decision. From that day on; to
Listen to the spirit crying out
He is MY HOPE MY JOY
Make him yours too
Ephesians 4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
