Jesus...  My Life Has Been An Embarrassment!

For many years...  My life has been

an embarrassment!

Filled with hopelessness

 and discouragement!

Many things I thought I had enjoyed..

Have left in me...   A large and empty void!

Many nights, I would

cry myself to sleep.

Knowing the hole my life was in,

was very, very deep.

Then one day, I called out to God!

I wasn’t sure if he’d listen!

My family, my old church,

I was now missin'.

My family prayed for me for so many years.

I often brought them embarrassment and tears.

God...  I tried everything else...

I want to come back to you!

I need you now Jesus! I really do!

Please come into my heart,

and cleanse me within!

Set me free from all addictions and sin!

I know that you will never let go of my hand.

My whole life, on your word,

I shall now stand.

Only you can satisfy the emptiness in my soul!

 I am now complete,

satisfied, and made whole!
