lost in wonder

A song that my bible study group sang during worship time.

Lost in Wonder

You chose the cross with every breath
The perfect life, the perfect death
You chose the cross
A crown of thorns You wore for us
And crowned us with eternal life
You chose the cross

And though Your soul was overwhelmed with pain
Obedient to death You overcame

I'm lost in wonder
I'm lost in love
I'm lost in praise forevermore
Because of Jesus' unfailing love
I am forgiven
I am restored

You loosed the cords of sinfulness
And broke the chains of my disgrace
You chose the cross
Up from the grave victorious
You rose again so glorious
You chose the cross

The sorrow that surrounded You was mine
"Yet, not My will but Yours be done," You cried

Because of Jesus, because of Jesus, because of Jesus
I am restored

I am a sinner in need of forgiveness and grace and Jesus gave that to me, fully paid on the cross. Yet, I still continue to let Him down everyday, in some way shape or form but He is still willing to take me back into His loving arms like a father embraces his children.

God, I need You more than ever in my life.
