I was an enemy
Still You died for me
I was a sinner
Still You forgave me
Psalm 32:5 (NKJV) I acknowledged my sin to You, And my iniquity I have not hidden. I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,” And You forgave the iniquity of my sin.
I walked away
Still You remain faithful
2 Timothy 2:13(NKJV) If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself.
I make myself busy
Still You wait patiently
Isaiah 30:18 (NKJV) Therefore the Lord will wait, that He may be gracious to you; And therefore He will be exalted, that He may have mercy on you. For the Lord is a God of justice; Blessed are all those who wait for Him.
I let go
Still You hold on
Hebrews 13:5 (NKJV) Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.
Still You see me as righteous
I act selfish at times
Still You bless me.
1 Corinthians 2:9 But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”
