God's Grace

If I could tell the world, what I've seen and what I've learned,

all that I have read about how wickedness will burn.

Good and evil always have resided side by side,

in this truth we are healed, death has been denied.

The Lord has told us what it is, now for us to do,

confess yourself the sinner of the evil shown of you.

When we accuse another, judged by our moral code,

we lay on them what we can't bear, an unforgiven load.

My heart breaks within my chest at how wrong we are,

righteousness within ourselves from our Savior, keeps us far.

When we justify condemning those who do us harm,

what is it then, should we expect from His Righteous Arm?

In compassion shared with others, we find the inner peace,

Jesus died so we can ask for and receive,

the Holy Spirit that's in the world, nourishing seeds of faith,

the Kingdom grows within us, love and mercy, full of grace.

It does not make the wrongs we do, right in any way,

the Lord alone can atone, with faith in Him we pray;

{Luke 17:20-21} Our Father, who is in heaven, hallowed be your Name,

your Kingdom come your Will be done on earth as it is in heaven,

give us this day our daily Bread, and forgive us our wrongs as we forgive those who wrong us,

let us not be tempted, but deliver us from evil,

for yours is the Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory, forever.In Jesus Christ's Name. Amen
