Ode to Jesus ChristA Poem by Emily ShaeA hopeless sinner Condemned to
die a traitor
Living in the
dark A little lamb
gone astray Now that’s all
in the past No time for
looking back I must keep
moving forward Today I serve Jesus
Christ The Alpha and
Omega The hope and
light to my starless night My guide, my friend,
my stronghold When I was in
need, He came and recued me In my weakness
His strength is made perfect His holy grace
He gave freely Me? Worthy? I am unworthy
of such love Of the gift of
grace He gave me There must be
something He wants in return How will I
ever repay Him for this lavish gift? I have nothing
to give that would be fitting for a King My earthly
possessions cannot compare to His brilliance But He does
not require anything Only that I
believe and confess with my heart That He is
Lord And with my
confession I receive His gift of grace It wasn’t of
works that I could boast But of His
mercy and love for me That I am
saved through the sanctity of Christ Jesus Hallelujah! The debt has
been paid And I have
been made new A new creation I have been
born again An adopted
