Lost Child Redeemed

 

Past sins and mistakes, all the natural man, before Christ set me free.

Sins led to a poisonous death, bent on destroying me.​

Family broken, hurts and pains, decisions made by a child.

The enemy directing; one soul beguiled.​

Insecure, reckless, and lost. A child groping in the dark.

Each move away from God tearing her apart.​

Only hope was never lost. The light, the Son revealed.

Jesus the Christ was never far away. The child's hurt and heart he healed​

The natural has died, the spiritual began.

As Christ has risen, so, she too was born again.​

Though her sins be as scarlet, they are now white as snow,

Though they are like crimson, they shall be white as wool.​

Her sins have been removed as far as the east is from the west.

And for this, she is gracious, thankful, and blessed.​

Because of who Christ is, he is all she is and more

All she knows and will know, he has opened the door.

"Follow me, your Savior speaks, take refuge beneath my wings

Peace, comfort, and love, to you these gifts I bring

Rest, yes, rest my child, the battles are already won.

I am your strength, fortress, and hiding place. Yes, I AM the One

My child, don’t look down, lift your head. Shame is no longer your crown

In Salvation, you have been clothed.  I have wrapped you in righteousness

I give you grace and mercy; behold your gown.

You shall forget the shame of your childhood.

For I am your Maker, the Lord Almighty, the Holy One, your Redeemer

You are a Trophy of My Grace. My lost child redeemed,

No Longer Disgraced
