Just as I am

"Just as I am".
Seems like a lifetime ..so many wasted days ..
different directions .. so many wrong ways
Then I did feel it ...... the touch of a hand ......
don't know why He chose me, "just as I am".
I lived for pleasures ..... comfort, in the crowd ......
seeking contentment ...that I never found .......
Then I remembered .....the touch of His hand ...
I had nothing to offer Him.... but, He took me "just as I am"
"Just as I am" ....... alone and confused ......
thought I'd lost the greatest love, ......I'd ever knew .....
searching for shelter .... to hide all my shame .....
looking for someone .......to carry the blame ......
Got down on my knees .......and that's when He came...
speaking so softly ..... calling my name .....
That's when I reached out ... touched the tip of his hand ...
I knew he still loved me ..."just as I am".
Life shadows grow longer .... My last sunset to see......
I live in the comfort ...... He's waiting for me.....
One day with him ....I'll walk that fair land .....
Me and my Jesus .....hand in hand .................
For when He reached down...... with his nail scarred hands .....
my sins were forgiven ..... He saved me "just as I am"

Now this is a worth write. It is amazing what God can and wants to do for us if we go to him Just As We Are. There is nothing in the world that can harm us if we have God. And your poem doesn't only carry a beautiful message it also flows well reads easy, so Very good write.
Greetings

I was reading along and suddenly I just started to sing out the words and It gave my heart peace. Believe me my Friend, today I needed to find peace. I enjoyed reading your work very much and I also enjoyed singing It. Have a good day. Catch you later. Your Friend always....MIKE. |
