His Forever

Jesus, friend of sinners

Loved me ’ere I knew Him

Drew me with His cords of love

Tightly bound me to Him

’Round my heart still closely twined

The ties that none can sever

For I am His and He is mine

Forever and forever

Jesus, friend of sinners

A crown of thorns You wore for me

Bruised for my transgressions

Pierced for my iniquities

The wrath of God that I deserved

Was poured out on the Innocent

He took my place, my soul to save

Now I am His forever

Jesus, friend of sinners

I love to tell the story

Redeeming love has been my theme

And will be when in glory

Not death nor life nor anything

Can ever separate me

O love that will not let me go

Yes, I am His forever

Who couldn't be moved by a song like this? I can't even sing it during worship, just close my eyes and listen because it moves me that much. It's so amazing to know that God loves us that much. I can only hope that Rick and I are successful at teaching our children the powerful and steadfast love of Jesus.

Romans 8...read it ;)
