Your Pain Is My Gain

My inspiration comes for Thee Who hangs there on the cross I only hope I am worthy For the words I will write Our lives are Yours if we allow Your teachings to penetrate our minds For they hold the truth and light As set down for our earthly lives Sometimes we stumble, sometimes we fall And on our knees to Your Cross we crawl To ask forgiveness for Your Pain And pray to not do it again. We try to atone for the sins we do And know forgiveness will come from You Then turn around and sin again Will this curse never end The fallen angel Satan Has many in control How do we break these ties that bind And lead them to Your throne Prayer is our ally Confession is our friend But only through Your help and God's Can we be whole again Once again I thank You For being there for me And leading me to the mountain top And the Ten Commandments we all need I review these laws that God did send And pray when my life does end He will be there to take my hand And lead me to the promised land Cile Beer August 15, 2010
