I’m aware…I'm far from perfect…sometimes I come so very short  

but, still... He forgives me 

Often… I fail to bring to mind His words of wisdom that I've been taught   

but, still...He keeps me  

In spite of my numerous mistakes and countless...nixes 

He continuously strengthens, repairs as His Mercy and Grace...fixes 

I know I don't deserve His tender care and attention

but, still... He covers me 

I'm hardly worth His suffering on Calvary, His death and resurrection 

but, still... He did it for the likes of me 

A time will come when one will not be able to tell day from night 

prophesied horrendous conditions will fill the sight

but even then...in the midst of earth's demise

with hell screeching from impending doom...

'if'...I've rendered sincere repentance, contrite...

the sweet arms of Jesus will surround me

His Love... dispelling all gloom

Is 49: 13-16
