I Have Sinned But God Still Loves Me

I Have Sinned!  But God Still Loves Me!

How can God use me, if I’m holding something back?
This sin I hold on to, is leading my life “off track.”

Each time that I pray, things haven’t been the same.
I’m doing something I shouldn’t do, and I’m not ashamed!

God’s been tugging at my heart, and said to “let it go!”
I can feel a struggle.  Deep within my soul!

How I want to be free, from the sin that holds me down!
In the midst of all my problems...  God’s grace, I have found!

I’ve found that his grace can bring a deep healing within!
His gift of love sustains me, and gives me victory over sin!

I’m so thankful for his forgiveness!  I clearly “blew it!”
He was near before my birth.  And already knew it!

He loves me!  And has given to me,
 a “second chance.”
He can change me right now! 
Whatever the circumstance!

Thank you Jesus!  For all that you’re going to do!
I can never totally express how much I appreciate YOU!

You’ve given to me, a life that is made complete!
I’m receiving your blessings!  
From my head to my feet!

I’ve found in you an eternal treasure
 and your beauty so bright!
You’re always here!  And shall protect me
 each day and night!
