Always Willing

by slm - Libra

You took my burdens to the cross, they vanished without a trace
You suffered for the sin I have and saved me by Your grace
The love You give I don't deserve, yet You still love me
You gave me life, the day You died, that day at Calvary

You love me when I stumble or when I'm too blind to see
Your love makes me so humble as it brings me to my knee
I fail You in so many ways yet I am surrounded by Your grace
I lay my burdens before You as they vanish without a trace

You have given us an example of the way in which to live
And I've found in life the hardest thing is often to forgive
Yet no matter what it is I've done, You seem to love me more
And You never turn away from me when I'm knocking at the door

Help me to forgive oh Lord and to overcome my sinful pride
Search my heart and cleanse me from the sin that tries to hide
Guide my steps as I walk each day in this life that I now live
Keep me ever so humble Lord and always willing to forgive
