GOD TOLD ME

I've let God down more than a time or two

Right decisions I had made were very few

He said He forgave me, but I couldn't forgive myself

The book about me, I closed and put up on a shelf

God told me He would restore me from the mess I had made

He went to my shelf and pulled down my book

Then He grinned and said come closer, let's take a look

Then He told me He had a new place for my book to be displayed

Inside was written the words under the blood

My tears kept falling creating a flood

So now when I fail Him and miss the mark

He takes me back to the cross to make a new start

Hallelujah

( God be praised )
