SACRIFICIAL FORGIVENESS
Sacrificial forgiveness extended to us,
You, me, all of humanity....if we reach
Out and take the gift, it's free, whoever
Opens the door, is another one invited
To come to God; open the door....let him
Pour forgiveness into your soul, making
You whole, he'll come in to sup with you,
So let Him take away your sin, he'll come
In and stay, to fellowship and dine, you'll
Drink new wine, and eat his sweet bread,
To keep your spirit fed, he'll never give up,
He'll never let you go, and now you'll have
Joy, and peace, his mercies never cease,
Your selflessness will increase, as more
Of him shows through you....it's the way
Of the Master, safe, secure, always pure!
