End of Year, Beginning of Now

Oh, Lord, it seems the life I've made
Has been wrought with error.

Can't I please go back and unhurt
those I've scarred for life?

Oh, Lord, it seems the steps I've taken
have turned into a nightmare.

Won't you allow time to dissolve
long enough to turn the other way?

How is it your blood covers my sins?
How is it your love washed over me?

Who am I to have this option available?
This is a day of miracles.

Each day I realize that You have made a way
out of the wilderness of sin and doubt

Is a day of miracles.

I hope and pray for those I've hurt
For wrong steps taken, that Your Love
would be the only option in their lives
as well.

Thank you for a sweet desperation. A grasping
.....a poverty of love that only your coffers of
salvation can fill.

Blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord!
