Raised alone in a black widow’s web I learned my way into the devil’s bed Sin is drug for which I am addicted Death is my sentence, I stand convicted In the blood of the Lamb, I long to be cleansed Forgiveness I seek, yet I reject it Imprisoned by my pleasures Damned by my blindness Feeling rejected by the Lord above I have excluded myself from eternal love By purchasing heaven on earth Tears of blood fall from my eyes To see Him on that cross to dying for me His last breath of human life Pierced my heart with the Word of Light The pain I felt upon that mount Could not compare to His when He looked at me I fell to my knees, I touched the earth I asked Him to punish me in His stead His death came undeserved From the bowels of my own prison Let me die today so He may live on… My life for yours, I heard Him say Your debt has been paid this very day Rise and walk o daughter of mine Seek the light and you will shine In His blood I have been washed! In His Word I have been found! In His Love I have been saved! In His death I found my life! Halleluia Written April 21, 1996 by Melody Wilson aka Lyn Eagleton |

There's no rhyme or reason to this, but it is how my salvation came to be those so few years ago. |

What a wonderful poem describing how we are like worms in the dust of the earth. And when we look at Him on the cross we plead for Him to come down and for us to take His place. Yet your verse: My life for yours, I heard Him say Your debt has been paid this very day Rise and walk o daughter of mine Seek the light and you will shine says it all. He gave His life to save ours, he paid our debt in full and wants us to shine in this world of darkness. He is awesome and He will never go away. He is eternity and He is love. What a wonderful poem. So glad you have joined us here at Passions. Sheri Adams Jesus lives in my heart! He can in yours too!!! |

This is a beautiful testimony. Indeed, He died that you should live and understand how precious you are in His sight and that He is love beyond what we can grasp. Thanks you for sharing this. Rae |
