At His feet


At His feet

 

My tears flow as I kneel at His feet

Tears of shame, remorse, regret

Tears of helplessness, confusion, need

I have no right to be here

Yet there is nowhere else I can go,

I can only lay my heart bare

At his feet - I need him so.

And he doesn’t push me far away

Or tell me roughly just to leave

Instead he draws me closer still

And whispers love words in my ear,

Forgives my sin, removes my shame

Helps me to stand and smile again

Can I Trust?


Can I trust?

 

Am I afraid to take the chance?

And surrender to this promised love

I guard and shield my trembling heart

From disappointment, pain and hurt

So can I take this offered hand?

That beckons me to live life loved

Can I trust that gentle smile?

Those open, honest, loving eyes

Oh Lord I really want to come

I want to take your offered love

I want to let you in my life

I want to trust and live life loved.

So thank you that you don’t give up

Persistently you woo my heart

You know me inside out my Lord

Yet still insist to offer love
