What He Didn't Have To Do, He Did
Monday, February 16, 2009
A young sister sent this touching poem to us describing the grace of our Lord Jesus in her life.
This is a poem I wrote a couple years ago after I had received my salvation.
The Lord didn't have to save me
From all my guilty sin
He didn't have to give me love
That is now deep within
He didn't have to pull me
From the muck and miry clay
Or put me on His path
Which is the straight and narrow way
He didn't have to pick me up
When I had fallen down
Nor did He have to make a smile
To replace my awful frown
He didn't have to die on a cross
To save a wretch like me
Once I was lost, but now I'm found
Was blind, but now I see
But since He did this all for me
I will praise His mighty Name
And to know that just for me is why
To Earth He came
When I think of what He did for me
It makes my heart rejoice
And as for this, to follow Him FOREVER
Is my choice
