Jesus
You know it all
How I feel like a failure.
Jesus
It is tough to believe
That you still love me
When others despise.
Jesus

Was for my sins
And you knew how I would blunder
Along the way.

No path can be hidden from your eyes:

I drink deeply
Till from within my heart
Its streams, living, overflows!Clear as a crystal
Flowing from God’s throne
And of the Lamb.

He had bigger things to do?I waited
