My Jesus, My Savior

The One, who with a towel and basin washed my feet, is King of the universe.  Fingers which created the mountains, now cleans my feet.  The One, whom all nations will kneel, now kneels before me--Only hours before His own death.

Separated from a holy God, bearing guilt and shame--until the veil was torn; I was captivated; no longer bound with shame which was left at an empty grave.

Though I sometimes stumble and fall short of your ways--I find You, by grace embracing me, just as I am.

When I get down and feel like I'm just going through the motions--there You are breaking through the dark making my life so beautiful again.  You never give up on me.

There are days when I feel the best of me is not enough--That is when He comes, takes me by my hand, and tells me,  "By grace, I can make you what you ought to be".

I ask myself, "Am I giving enough; am I doing enough?"  He says, "I gave My life my all for you; everything I do is for you".

He knew by grace I would need a Savior.  So He left the splendor of the heavenlies and became flesh.  Who would have thought that a man could rescue my soul from hell?  Because of my sins, He wept in the garden, and by grace, gave Himself up to crucifixion on an old rugged cross.

To the cross will I forever cling because there He was bruised and crushed for me.  O, how great is Your wondrous love.

I will glorify the King of Kings; I will glorify the lamb, the Lord of Lords, who is the great I am.  By his saving grace, I will bow before His throne.

My Jesus, my Savior there is no one like you.  For all the days that I have left I want to praise You for your wondrous love.  May by Your grace I never cease to worship Your holy name.

Thank you Jesus for pouring out God's grace like rain upon my heat.
