You Are The One God Truly Loves – 5/17/20

Living in despair

You feel completely lost

Wandering who knows where

To and fro you’re tossed

You wander what’s the purpose of living

Hoping for something more

You have a void you attempt filling

But nothing will restore

You go on living as before

But still searching for meaning

Life is good, fun at times, sure

But it still feels so empty

One day you meet a man who asks

Was there ever a time there was nothing?

You had been very downcast

But this question sparked something

You never thought about it before

How could something come from nothing

Zero plus zero equals zero

But wait there’s more coming

This something had to have been life

Lifeless forms can’t make one better than itself.

It had to have been eternal life

Jesus speaks of himself.

God loves you and has a purpose for your life

More than just living

He has a great plan for you

A meaningful plan he’s giving

He wants you to turn and run to Him

Can you feel Him pulling you

He’s forever loving you

He wants to make your heart anew

He sent His only Son for you

That in Him you may abide

He is the way, the truth, the life

He wants us in Heaven to reside.

You must obey his commands

He paid it all, so all to Him you owe

Take to heart His reprimands

The meaning behind you’ll one day know

You once were lost deep in your sins

but now in Jesus you are found

You once were so helplessly blind

But now with glory you are crowned

He pours out His grace upon us

We now have an atonement

He died because He so much loves

We were nothing without Jesus sent.

But that doesn’t mean you have an excuse

For what, shall we continue in sin?

God forbid; that’s a lie from Satan

He relentlessly twists God’s gift to men

If we are dead to sin

How can we live any longer therein

May God create in you a clean heart

And give you a fresh new start

Serve the Lord with gladness

Come before His presence with singing

Know that the LORD he is God

Serve Him with your whole being

Suffer long, keep your faith strong

His Holy Spirit He will send

To comfort you and lead you to Him

You must endure until the end

Remember where you once had been

How he saved you from your sin

Much sorrow you have come from

And where your journey first begun

Jesus loves you very much

He wholeheartedly does

He died so that He could have you

He’s not saying this just because.

You are one God truly loves.
