By Your Grace

 

I know I’m not your perfect child,

And I will never be.

But You knew that before You came

To set my lost soul free.

I often question why You chose

To call me to Your side,

With all the scars and blemishes

That I can never hide.

But You don’t see them like I do,

You see them healed by Grace,

And that is why, since You called me,

I’ll stand and claim my place.

I’ll call You “Lord” before the world

And praise You from my soul.

I’ll never be Your perfect child,

But, by Your Grace, I’m whole!

Hebrews 10: 21

and since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.
