What Used To Be

Folder: 
Spiritual Change

I was too, once deceived, but through God’s Word I believed,

Knowledge of God, I had none, but then I embraced His Son.

I was too, a sinner lost, but then I read about Calvary’s cross,

Where The Lord was crucified, and for all my sin He had died.



Though darkness was all around, by Christ Jesus I was found,

Giving me through His Light, a path to life, out from my night.

Christ sent me the Holy Spirit, to teach me Truth when I hear it,

To grow in the knowledge of Him, who saved me from my sin.



I was separated from a Holy God, upon this fallen earthly sod,

But, brought into His family, through Christ’s Cross at Calvary.

In my trespasses, I was dead, no matter what my religion said,

But, from The Son, Jesus Christ, I was given by God New Life.



In my previous life I was all alone, left on earth to simply roam,

Now my Shepherd and my guide, Christ, is always by my side.

Once I had lived with uncertainty, about the time called eternity,

Now I know through His Grace, in heaven for me awaits a place.



A place for me’s been secured, by Jesus Christ my loving Lord,

Where in His presence I shall be, and, throughout all of Eternity.

And friend God wants you to know, you can have a place to go,

To live with Him in heaven above, provided by our Savior’s love.
