" Lost Sheep; Found "

Father, forgive me for I have sinned
Not only once, but over and over again.
I don't understand why You love me
I can't understand why You care
I stand broken and ashamed
Yet still I find You there
Constantly wiping my tears
and giving me peace while calming my fears
When I find myself in pain
and I feel like it wont ever get better,
You come rushing to my side and remove that binding fetter
When I feel lost and like I'm walking blind
You remove the cover on my eyes and restore my sight
I am such a mess, Oh Lord
I threw morals out the window and lived by my own accord
I don't expect You to be so understanding,
When I let go of You and walk away
But You always stay
Even when I choose to stray
You're there with open arms
When I cry out Your name
Keeping me safe from harm and loving me the same.
I've been looking for love in all the wrong places
When Yours is there all along
I am so weak, only with You am I strong
I am worth so much more
Than giving myself over to someone elses pleasure
My life, love and heart are all priceless treasures
to be given to someone who loves with a love from above
Not earthly lust that people call love.
Lord, I pray please give me a clean slate
Help me get back to where you want me
I know it's not too late.

So I end with this:
Although I can't fathom
Why You love me or how You even care
I thank You, thank You, thank You
For the love You willingly give and allow me to share.
I'm grateful for Your promise
And for saving me from myself
For loving the whole world and for dying on the cross.

Because without You I'd be lost.
A lost, lonely sheep following the crowd
Giving in to empty promises and living life too proud
Wandering, wandering, wandering
In despair and broken inside
All the while feeling dead
Because only with You am I alive.

Your love has shone its light
And illuminated my path
I feel warmth like sunlight

As forgiveness washes over,

You say to me,
" My child you are free and by this world no longer bound, Rejoice! Oh little lost sheep for you have now been found."
