these
fragile bones
weak,
often straying off the path
so
desperately long to praise You
that
to fail to do so
is
death
yet
often die
still
Your blessings pour
down
upon me
in
abundant measure
so
much that I am unaware
of
most of what You give
that
You can love such as me
is
astounding
for
I know the kind of man I am
and
know that You know better
and
still You love me
without
regret
to
the point of dying in my place
my
life upon Your mind
in
Your dying hour
You
love me and because You do
Your
own resurrection can be mine
a
joyful welcome into eternity
through
blood freely spilled
in
place of mine
oh
my God
may
I take Your salvation
as
I take my breath
trusting
in its power
to
save my life
