In His Hands

Oh, I have been down the road Plenty of twists and turns Trying this and that Dabble in those things ‘Experiment’ in the others There is a panoply of ‘options' out there But what is the end of it? Do all roads lead to Rome? Well, what is your definition of Rome? If it is peace then the answer is clear A deep, resounding “NO!!” ‘There are many ways to God!’ What a crock No, The Man said it himself “Narrow is the gate to life” Man, is it narrow Even those who want it find it elusive And what about those who don’t? The Disciples said it well: “Who then can be saved” But, oh I have been blessed What a glorious journey I have walked Thanks to Him The countless miracles of salvation Kept alive through so many dangers Too many to count And here I stand Still kicking Not by my power Only Grace Amazing Grace Too great to describe Oh Abba, how can I thank you How great is your love for me Ever will I sing of it Penning it the best I know how Your indescribable Beauty Your matchless Grace Overwhelming Love Unfathomable Mercy I love you, my God I do not have the words You have gifted me with words But I am mute to describe it Thank you, thank you, Abba How can I say to you The love that is in my heart I know you will never lose me For you are greater than all And nothing can ever snatch me From out of your Mighty Hand For my King has bought me With his very life’s blood He owns me Jealously he watches over me And he will not give me up Stephen Pursell, 2/28/15
