ONLY YOU
[title created from my poem, 'only me']

Your love has
Lit a passionate fire within my soul.
It has renewed my mind
And made me whole.

Your mercy has
Forgiven my sin.
It has cleansed
And purified me within.

Your grace has
Made me see,
How much You value
And treasure me.

Your compassion is
The reason I�m alive.
Without you,
There�s no way I could survive.

Your kindness has
Mended my broken heart.
Your son had bridged the gap between us;
Now we will never be apart.

Your truth has
Set my spirit free.
It constantly
Amazes me.

Your faithfulness is
Great and lasts forever;
Abounding in
The deepest measure.

Your patience has
Made me wonder,
How You could put up with me,
When I�ve made blunder after blunder.

Your glory is
Undoubtedly amazing.
It makes me question what
You saw in me worth saving.

Your holiness brings
Me to my knees.
I ponder why the ruler of the universe
Would supply my every need.

Your wisdom has
Gently guided me through everyday.
It shows me that
You are the only way.

Your power inspires
Me to bow before Your throne;
To worship You
And You alone.

Your peace has
Enveloped me to my very core.
It makes me need You
More and more.

Your joy has
Lifted my sorrow.
It�s the reason why I smile
And helps me face tomorrow.

Your justice is
The reason why You sent Your son
To pay the price for
All the wrongs that I�ve done.

Your son paid
The price for me.
He suffered and died
On Calvary�s tree.

Your virtues I
Could extol endlessly,
But all I can say is,
�Thank you, my Lord, for saving me!�
