He Died For Us ***normally i don't write of such spirituality but after attending church service yesterday this is what inspired me*** He died on the cross for you and me Shedding his very blood, so our sins would be set free He died for us in the killing field So that our hearts would someday be healed The chants of angry cries could be heard But not once did he utter a word He raised his eyes instead to the Lord above Asking for our forgiveness, and for eternal love I wasn't there that day, but still I believe For some people this concept is hard to conceive But he is not dead, to the tomb he did not depart He is alive, in each and every heart If you ask to be saved, and you say it with sincerity You will be spared, shown such incredible mercy All you have to do is welcome Jesus into your soul He will free you of your burdens, making you whole I've asked Jesus countless times to be there for me He has helped me in times of pity Healing me, allowing me to rise high above All because I welcomed him, asking for his love "you can't stop the rain from pouring down can't stop the world from turning 'round can't stop me from loving you no matter what you do" [This message has been edited by Aimster (04-01-2002 09:08 PM).] |

(big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, I can't help but cry every time I think of Jesus, for I love Him so much and your words shine with His light and love! (kiss on cheek) I believe with all my heart He died for us all and to offer love a chance and for sinners to be edified and to achieve penitence! We all love you so much, sweet friend, you are a true angel to us all, this is outstanding! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Amy, thak you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

I wasn't there that day, but still I believe For some people this concept is hard to conceive But he is not dead, to the tomb he did not depart He is alive, in each and every heart I especially liked that stanza~ Wonderful message Amy~ |
