Forgiveness divine,
repent and receive
the beauty of grace
when you believe.
Bathe in His mercy,
soak up His fullness
plunge yourself into
all of His goodness.
Washed of your sins,
released from the shame
when you trust Jesus
nothing ever is the same.
Healing compassion,
immersion of love
blood of our Savior
God’s gift from above.
Forgiveness divine,
today is the day
God’s mercy and grace
are just one prayer away!

1 John 1:9
King James Version
“If we confess our sins, he is faithful
and just to forgive us our sins,
and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”

Tone deaf and sing like something no one would want to hear 🙂 But, I have had some of my poems put to music. I pray they are being sung by those who have such a gift. It is all for His glory and however God may used them I am happy to share what He gives me. ~ God’s abundant blessings to you ~
