A Poetic Prayer of Salvation
Unto thee, dear Father,
Inspired by the Spirit
Of the Holy Ghost, I’ve come.To say that I’m a sinner!
Truly sorry for my sins!
Pleading for forgiveness
That I might be born again!
I lay my life before Thee!
I surrender every part!
I bow, myself, before Thy throne!
I give, to Thee, my heart!
Shine Thy Light upon it!
Seek and find all of my sins!
Eradicate my wicked ways,
And wash me “white,” within!
Fully, I surrender
In acceptance of Thy Son!
For, I believe He gave His life
That sinners might be won!
I believe Christ Jesus
Went to Calvary, for me!
Where, He hung and bled, and died
To save and set me free!
I believe He conquered hell
And made ol’ death behave!
And, with Almighty power,
He ascended from the grave!
To give, to me, eternal life
And power over sin;
That I may live my life for Him,
As one who’s born-again!
So, from this very second,
“I AM SAVED!” and headed home!
For, now, I’m wholly Thine, O Lord!
Thine, and Thine, alone!
