I wrote this in spurts of yesterday. At first I thought it was finished with the line "He knew me." Then I went on. Now I'm unsure if I should go back to my original decision. Please, please, tell me what you think. Do I need to stop with that line, leave as is, or add even more?


before I was dust
when I was but
a gleam
in my Father’s eyes
before my DNA
had a name
He knew me
He loved me
He died for me
because He already knew
He wanted me to belong to Him
and because He touched my heart
because He convicted my spirit
because He filled me with love
I couldn’t help myself
I chose to accept His gift
