Poetry
How can I repay you O Lord, how can I?
For the kindness you showed into mine life.
You never gave a second thought about Jesus.
You sent him on earth to suffer and die for me.
Such that mine blackened sins can be whitened as snow.
How can I repay you for all this goodness?
As I close mine eyes, a vision appears.
Jesus Christ being lashed like a wild beast.
Blood oozing out and flowing like a creek.
I see a crown of thorns on his head.
And a ragged scarlet robe covering his body,
With his back ‘overcooked’ with hot fiery whips.
Suffering like this for my sake;
I ask how can I repay you Lord?
I open my eyes, but the thoughts continue to haunt me.
Thoughts of the excruciating pain you endured.
When nails ran through your faithful palms.
And a spear pierced your side.
I see water gushing out like a fountain from your side wound.
Enduring all these stings for my sake.
How can I repay you for all this goodness?
My King, my Lord and my Saviour, I shout.
How can I repay for your love to me?
Like David the king, I shall do likewise.
I will continue to lift higher the cup of salvation.
And consecrate my life to good things all the time.
If there’s anything I can do, my hands are open dear Lord.
O, how can I repay you for all the goodness you’ve done to me?
