Turning My Failure Into Victory

 

 

TURNING MY FAILURE INTO VICTORY

 

Failure! Yes, I am such a failure!

I failed you, him and her

I failed everyone here

Yes, I’m such a loser!

 

I thought I was brave!

Willing to join you even to the grave

But I couldn’t believe

I failed you, now I grieve

 

What a shame!

Yes, you can blame

Those who came to blaspheme

I’m no different, I’m the same

 

Peter, Peter, look at me!

Remember I’ve prayed for thee

To feel guilty, you should not be

Be converted and follow me

 

Now you know, you’re not that strong!

I know you admit that you are wrong

To get right with me I know you long

You’re forgiven, forever to me you belong

 

No, you’re not a failure!

Let your mistakes make you mature

Every now and then Satan will come to lure

But the faith that I planted in you is sure

 

Thank you, Jesus, for this great reminder

When I fail, it doesn’t mean I’m a loser

All I need is to come to you and surrender

For you alone who can make me a winner

 

The battle I face from day to day

Not mine to fight nor to carry

As I lay them down to you and pray

You’re turning my failure into victory

 

Thank you, Jesus, for being so forgiving

Your love is simply amazing

Your bountiful grace is unending

Your mercy is everlasting!

Luke 22:31-32 & 61-62

 

³¹ And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: ³² But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.

⁶¹ And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said unto him, Before the c**k crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. ⁶² And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.
