How I wish to reach perfection!
And never sin again,
To be a perfect child
Innocent and sweet.
Yet I am still a human,
Often selfish as can be.
Oh, I long to reach perfection!
But here it cannot be.
Thank God who sent His Son!
Who covers all my sin.
With that precious blood He spilled,
Now I'm perfect in God's eyes.
Oh thank the Lord once again,
And forever more I'll sing
For He's made a way to heaven
An eternal perfect place!
This reminds me of the poem by Louisa May Alcott called "My Kingdom". Very pretty.
ReplyDeleteI like your poem!

ReplyDeleteThis poems reminds me that we can never be perfect, but we should not strive to be because God has made us free and has forgiven us. That is as perfect as we can ever hope to be
