I know what I am
\nI’m a sinner
\nI’m not perfect
\nBut I have so
\nmuch in the Lord
\nMy Father
\n~
\nHope is the first
\nthing that I have
\nWhen I’m done
\nwith this life
\nI know where I’m
\ngonna end
\n~
\nFaith the second
\nsure of what I hope
\nfor Certain of things
\nnot yet seen
\nI know I’ll get there
\nwhen it’s my time
\n~
\nPeace the third
\nnot afraid
\nto speak my mind
\nsay what’s on my heart
\nand be just fine
\n~
\nGrace is the next
\nUndeserved
\nyet given
\nto us freely
\nWe can’t earn it
\nby works or deeds
\nWe have to accept
\nhim to recieve it
\n~
\nMercy is another
\nHow we got it
\nI don’t know
\nWe deserve to die
\nhorrible deaths
\nfor the sins we commit
\nyet the Father
\nsent his one and only
\nson to the cross to die
\nfor us all
\n~
\nLove is one more
\nIt’s patient and its kind
\nnever late always on time
\nIt is not proud
\nand keeps no records of wrongs
\nIt’s always there
\nnever fails and never ends
\n~
\nJoy is the last
\nthing on my mind
\nInexpressable
\nat times
\njust how lucky I am
\nto be a sinner saved
\nby the blood of Christ
\n~
\nHard to imagine living any
\nother way But
\nI am free and I am forgiven
\nAnd that’s just the way I like it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
