I Thank God

I always thank God for loving me, this in spite of who I really am,

A careful look inside would see, a heart that He should condemn,

A heart which was far from free, in bondage like all wayward men,

But by His Spirit sent to me, in Jesus Christ, I’ve been born again.



A gift from God I simply receive, that from His Son is Eternal Life,

And all that I must do is believe, in God’s Only Son, Jesus Christ.

Although I was once deceived, in a world where darkness was rife,

That darkness has been relieved, through the Light of Jesus Christ.



It was The Lord Jesus, at Calvary, who came to be our true friend,

Where Christ died upon that tree, providing to man an eternal end.

This all comes through the Mercy, of a God we can’t comprehend,

A Grace offered to you and me, which through eternity will extend.



And with this, comes a new start, from The Lord through new birth,

Bringing change within my heart, to live life differently on the earth.

In all this, I contribute no part, for Christ alone gives me new worth,

And by His Spirit, who won’t depart, God fills me with eternal mirth.



And you friend can thank Him too, as Christ the Savior died for all,

Yes, Christ died for me and you, to save all men from Adam’s fall,

He died for both Gentile and Jew, and all men, both big and small,

So all can have a life brand new, and enter into eternity walking tall.
