The Love of God
There once was a time where I swallowed pills to die
I think this was the very at that caught God's eye
He picked me up and led me away, from the things that caused me to go astray
As I awoke from my seemingly deep slumber
I looked around, tear filled eyes, in awe and wonder
at the amazing grace that saved a wretch like me
That took me up and restored me to the things I couldn't see
He restored my faith beyond my imagination
Watched over me through trials and tribulation
Oh what amazing grace that saved me from
the things that I have once done
And when I felt like I could no longer move on in this life
He held my hand, told me to follow him, and leave my strife
What manner of man is this that loved me even when he knew
that the burden in my heart constantly grew
I never knew I was so undeserving
Of my Lord's love and yearning
As the years have passed and I have grown
My eyes have been opened to many things that I should have known
