It’s Me Again LORD

It’s Me Again LORD

When I fell down, YOU picked me up
and when I bailed, YOU filled my cup;
When overwhelmed with daily life
YOU alone helped ease the strife;

The many things I’ve failed to do,
YOU were there and saw me through.
Why on earth do YOU still care
If in YOUR life I have a share?

I’ve not been good and stayed the course…
I left YOUR path with no remorse.
YOUR forgiveness have I felt…
most profoundly, when I knelt.

I myself would show less mercy
for the things that I have done.
But then I recall YOUR perfect love,
so great, YOU gave YOUR SON.

Which makes the point on which I labored
Though underserved, I still have savored…
YOUR forgiveness, and YOUR grace…
And all my sins YOU did erase.

It’s through YOUR kindness I’ve been reprieved.
My burdensome sins have been relieved.
I say this often … or so it seems…
I’m grateful that my GOD redeems.
