God took on flesh,
came to live among us.
Through all disgrace and shame,
He gave us salvation.
But I did not know or understand Him,
full of grumbles.
How His heart grieved at
my rebellion and resistance!
Dear Almighty God,
You don’t remember my faults.
You’ve endured all my rebellious ways
but offer grace once again.
Knowing You raise me up,
I’m covered with great shame.
How unworthy I am to receive Your love!
Dear Almighty God,
I hear what you said.
Holding Your words in my hands,
tears stream down my face.
Every word is warm to my heart,
draws me closer to You.
Freed from my passiveness,
I rise to follow You.
Now my eyes are opened,
my heart filled with remorse.
Ready to be born again
and live out what You desire.
I will return Your love,
offer everything I am,
bearing strong witness to comfort Your heart.
Your love has woken me,
I’ll fulfill my duty.
Faithful to the end,
I’ll care for Your desire.
I will return Your love,
offer everything I am,
bearing strong witness to comfort Your heart,
bearing strong witness to comfort Your heart.
from Follow the Lamb and Sing New Songs
