His Gift His Gift LORD JESUS, in honor of Your Birthday I would like to say That I Love You, and wish to honor Thee, each and every day. Lord I am reminded, of just how far our world has strayed When right is wrong, and wrong is right as so many have displayed. I repent, and am so burdened about all that I do see... Lord, in Your infinite mercy You have allowed us to be free. This freedom has been sacrificed and mankind forsakes Your rules That You set forth to guide them so they would not be such fools. They display just how far they've gone and do it without a care My heart is heavily burdened as I see chaos ensue everywhere. Lord, I don't know why they've forsaken You when You are all we've got... You stand between us, and complete destruction oh, look at what man has wrought! Lord, I ask You for forgiveness and to help our erring ways This world has become so crazy it's just one gigantic maze. Those that love and want to serve You will always be provided a place Where we can come and worship Thee for we live simply by Your Grace. So today on Your special day I "Thank You" once again... For coming and giving the gift of life to one and all...Amen. (c) 2012 Karen Langford Brown "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."
