Forgiven


Hebrews 13:5 

Your conduct must be free from the love of money and you must be content with what you have, for He has said, “I will never leave you and I will never abandon you.”

 

Forgiven

 

What a blessing to be surrounded by sinners

Forgiven by the Lord for whatever ailed

There is much love for Jesus and little for self

As guilt tries to quench wherever Satan failed

 

Open your hearts dear children let the Son-shine in

All other will flow out what’s not worth the keeping

Only He can cleanse the pollution of all sin

That clings to the old heart in a timeless beeping

 

When He writes on the tables of the new heart

He writes in color red on the background pure and white

I will never leave you nor forsake you or depart

You will be where I am and forever in the Light
