Hard Won Battles

Artists Al and Linda Smith kindly let me share the lyrics with you.

I wished I could go back in time – to places I had gone

A chance to make things right again – and undo all my wrong

No one else in all the earth – could free my past from sin

Only you could do that Lord – and make me clean again

 

I am clean Lord – I am clean

You’ve forgiven my past – And I am free

No more shame – breaking through

You’ve forgiven me – so I will too

 

Reaching out for foolish gain – only brought regret

Memories – haunted me. I could not forget

None can re-arrange the past or change what’s gone before

But Jesus took the crimson stain and made me white as snow

 

Will I say that Jesus blood – cannot make me clean?

Will I say His sacrifice – wasn’t meant for me?

Will I not confess my sins – Will I not believe?

Jesus Christ paid it all – in love on Calvary

Is that you, struggling to forgive yourself when God says the battle is already won? He did it, just for you.

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16, NIV)

Prayer- Lord, right this minute we accept your sacrifice on our behalf and choose to believe what you said…we are forgiven. Amen!
