The Spirit sent from Jesus Christ, came and my heart He engaged. <br />Christ became for all a sacrifice, and all of my sins Christ forgave. <br />And by the blood of Jesus Christ, a sinful soul by Christ was saved. <br />From the grave He came to life, and now my life Christ has raised. <br /> <br />The Holy Spirit Christ sent to us, came from The Father up above. <br />Who had sent to us His Son Jesus, to the entire world by His Love. <br />And in His Son we place our trust, as we look to The Father above. <br />God then purges us of worldly lust, by filling us with Christ like love. <br /> <br />Christ forgave me of all my sin, when I accepted Him into my heart. <br />He cleansed my heart deep within, and gave me a brand new start. <br />And The Spirit that was sent from Him, from my life shall not depart. <br />The Spirit helps me avoid all sin, as He guides my mind and heart. <br /> <br />As a darkened soul I was saved, through the blood of Jesus Christ. <br />With the very life that Christ gave, He paid for all the ultimate price. <br />From my life that was so depraved, He gave to me brand a new life. <br />And so this life, back to Him I gave, to be for Jesus a living sacrifice. <br /> <br />Men who once knew me are amazed, as I live like an innocent dove, <br />As now with Him I’ve been raised, seated in the Heavens up above. <br />Where He’s to be forever praised, for what’s truly God’s Eternal Love. <br />And I may never look on my grave, if soon raptured to His side above. <br /> <br />(Copyright ©01/2006)<br /><br />Bob Gotti<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/forgave-saved-and-raised/
