YOURS!

Religious poem about the love of CHRIST.

YOURS!

I remember when this desire first began.
A vision came to me of YOU hanging
In the dark, with revelation of how
Deeply and completely YOU must love,
To have died upon a cross for me; for me!
(Though I know, not for me - only).

And it has made me desperate
To be yours, O SON of GOD, forevermore!
With need to worship, to please, to fall
Upon my knees in praise and adoration
Of the all renewing, all redeeming,
Total healing, power of your love,

That has taken hold of me.
There can be no going back
To what I’ve been.
So I offer all I am, and
I know that I am ready now
To be Yours, JESUS;

My Lord of Glory,
My Lord of Love,
My Lord of Mercy,
My Lord; my GOD!
I am ready to be Yours,
Yours - forevermore!
