“I cry for help, whimper a plea <br />Whisper within the squall <br />Sobbing on bended knee <br />Please hear me as I call <br /> <br />I’m lost dear God, so far from grace <br />So fearful to die <br />So anxiously I seek Your face <br />In Jesus’ name on high <br /> <br />I’ve read Your Word and understand <br />Christ Jesus died for me <br />That if I seek his guiding hand <br />He’ll set my spirit free <br /> <br />Your Word reveals I’m doomed to die <br />Through sin I’m tightly bound <br />Yet through The Blood of Christ on high <br />Salvation may be found <br /> <br />So here I am and hear I kneel <br />In faith I humbly pray <br />Upon my life Lord place Your Seal <br />And change my ways this day <br /> <br />Be now my Lord be now my King <br />My refuge and reward <br />Allow me too on eagle’s wing <br />Flee now Your vengeful sword <br /> <br />Be faithful as Your Word dictates <br />Remain Your Promise true <br />Lay wide dear God Salvation’s Gates <br />And let me safely through <br /> <br />I know I’m asking much of You <br />I know I’ve done much wrong <br />But through Your grace and birth anew <br />I too may sing life’s song”<br /><br />Michael P.
