Lord, how
can I repay, the price
You paid for me;
So many
years ago, upon the
Cross of Calvary?
You see,
I can truly see it, in
my mind so very clear;
The steps
You took to give ME
life, to rip the veil
and draw me near!
I can
hear the conversation
between the Father and
the Son;
Of all
that You'd endure, so
that MY heart, could be
won.
You left
Your Home in Glory, Your
Kingdom and Your Throne;
To come
into MY world ~ and
give, Your life, to
lead ME home.
Just a
tiny baby, wrapped in
swaddling clothes;
Laying in
a manger ~ the Gift Of
Life And Hope!
To grow
in simple lifestyle,
unlike Your Kingly Role;
You gave
up heaven's treasures
and the comfort of Your
Throne!
And THEN,
the time DID come, for
You to sacrifice it all;
It was
the plan for all the
ages, it gave redemption
for the fall!
Your
Blood was shed upon that
Cross, as YOU became a
lamb;
And all
of time stood silent,
across the heaven's and
the land.
It was
done, YES, it was
finished, and the plan
fell into place;
It's
where a King became a
baby, and then a man who
poured out GRACE!
From the
grave, You rose to life,
and returned to Heaven's
Throne;
And You
did it ALL for ME ~ You
made me, Lord, Your Own.
The gift
You gave was priceless,
it has made me who I
am;
A Child
Redeemed By Grace ~
Forever Grateful, To The
Lamb!
And even
now, I wait for You, and
watch for You to come;
As YOUR
plan, comes to fruition,
and the FINAL victory's
won!
