I am God, and not man; the Holy One within thee (Hosea 11:9; BST).
I’m one, at last, with you, my God,
I’m one, at last, with you –
But not because of anything
I think, or say, or do.
It’s not because I’ve served you well:
I fail you every day –
It’s just because you love me,
Though I’m nothing more than clay.
It’s not because I’ve earned your praise,
For merit have I none –
It’s just because you’ve saved my soul,
By sending Christ, your Son.
God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him (John 3:17; NLT).
