God would come down
and become a man
to live and die
for my sins
By any stretch of imagination
I could not figure out
how a God would love me
and care enough to die
a cruel death for my sins
I realise I have only begun to understand
His love gradually day by day
reading His word
experiencing His peace and grace
through storms and tumults of life
How easily I forget this
during good times
often do I take Him
for granted
instead of following Him
Yet, my heart yearns
to know His love
to have the power to understand
how wide, how long
how high and how deep
The everlasting love
that stretches from heaven to the earth
from the east to the west
and underneath
are His everlasting arms
Yes Lord, may I grow in knowledge
of Your love
let me follow You more closely
love You more dearly
and obey You more joyfully
