His Grace Is Sufficient For Me

I've fallen from faith's light. I slipped out of God's sight. Me, once a gospel defender. I can't but now be a pretender. I'm subject to it all. Like you, I too can fall. Desire often takes hold of me. Chained to it, I can't break free. Free of the wants The flesh that taunts Me: to look, to taste! to touch! My seat has gone to waste. I bring tears to the eyes of him who first loved me. And away from him, my fears Manifest, even as I give-in to lust. This flesh of mine, it is strong and with my weak will: I do wrong. So in time, not too long, My word may no longer be bond My name in the book Might be erased And I may die, When I leave this place... -- But I would not die Because of God's Grace I know that I will see his face. In Jesus' name, amen. Copyright © 2009 Leslie Alexis
