My life is completely open to God,
There is nothing more to hide,
All my darkest sins are obvious to Him,
But, forgiveness covers my deepest shame,
My futile attempts at making my own way,
Dissipated into hollow emptiness,
Nowhere to hide and alone with my sorrow,
Found by God’s relentless search for love.
Finally my hardest lesson was learned,
Separation caused by my vain conceit,
Forgiveness waited for an honest heart,
Waiting prolonged the agony of my shame,
Humiliation completing God’s work.
Lost in a maze of false promises,
Truth drowned out by the Accuser’s screams,
The search for words from truth’s heart,
Reveals God’s guiding hand in my life,
My weeping guiding me to Eternity’s trust,
Remorseful tears becoming the Liar’s shame,
All condemnation is replaced by hope,
A victory shout is God’s final word.
