No More Shame

“Who am I O Lord that you would be mindful of me?
You say Your love for me is true, but I just can’t see how that can be.
I know the shameful things I’ve done.
Horrible things that cost You You’re one and only son.
I hang my head in shame.
Trying to tune out Your voice as you call my name.
I can’t look at you. I can’t let you see
All the ugly that is inside of me.”

But you gently lift my chin, wiping away all my tears.

You tell me, “Beloved I have been chasing you for so many years.
Now that I have you, I am never letting go.
I know your all your deeds and I love you anyway just so you know.
Let me wash you clean and pour fresh oil in your head.
You are now alive in me, no longer dead.”

Your words pierce my heart and take away my breath
As I realize I am no longer a slave to death.
I am alive in Christ, the Risen King!
In Him I will put my hope and sing…Hallelujah!
