All I did was repent and believe
But I was saved
I had nothing grand to offer
Than just this life that had suffered
But my God looked beyond who I am
And calls me to always be on…
Everytime my heart wanders
There’s Your hand that reaches me
Searching me beyond the noisy crowd
And calling me to be on Your peaceful ground
That’s when I am reminded
How faithful my God truly is
My wit cannot see what’s in there for tomorrow
That my anxious soul wishes the time to slow
When I am about to stop and shut my eyes
And run away from your presence
Your promises pull me beyond my sorrows
And You call me dearly, to be on Your winning side
There were also nights when doubts strike me
And my confidence is trampled on the ground
My knees without strength want to give in
And forever in the pit to hide
But then beyond sharp criticisms
You call me to be on Your loving arms
But sometimes I pride myself for being saved
Bound to heaven, justified, saved by grace
Yet there are times I act without compassion
I reason out why I can’t carry out the great commission
But beyond my coward heart
You call me to be on, always with Jesus Christ
And when the scoffers laugh at me
How old fashion my life could be
I toughen up myself and tell my heart
“Be confident with your faith
Because beyond the agonies of the cross
Is a God that lives”
