I am but a fraction of you.
Anointed by design, but then
became man. Your free spirit gave
me choice. That freedom gave me sin.
Your love, it let me be, but hate
bury me deep. Eternally I lived,
now mortally I plea.


A quarter of a century must pass, for the writer to understand what and why he writes.

I will read this many times before absolutely absorbing it. But once is enough to know it is profound.

In a nutshell you've explained life.
We are but an unworthy fraction. Given free will in which we chose sin.

But oh so thankful for GRACE!

walker,

I join you on my knees
praying for God's blanket of forgivness
and when given the choice
between life and death...
let us choose life.
yes, let us cleave to life!!!

so beautifully and profoundly simple!

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.
