Here is a poem. I did not write this, nor could I ever imagine taking credit for something this beautiful. I want you to read this slowly. Pay attention to the words as they roll through your mind and let their weight settle upon your heart. Think about what each line is saying and let the meaning resonate in your soul. It's beautiful and so very....magical. I hope you can understand what I mean. And I hope you can do it without singing.
God Bless your travels,
Carissa
How Deep the Father's Love for Us
How deep the Father's love for us
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure
How great the pain of searing loss
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the Chosen One
Bring many sons to glory
Behold the man upon a cross
My sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice
Call out among the scoffers
It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is finished
I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection
Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom
Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom
