I sinned today, how could that be?
When I've asked Jesus my life to lead.
I've said yes to His mercy and love,
Reserved my place in heaven above.
He saved me from eternal death,
I live in Grace with each new breath.
Yet knowing all He's done for me,
I slipped, I fell, and I sinned today.
He knew me long before my birth,
He had a plan and saw my worth.
He could have used a grain of sand,
But put His grace within my hand
He demonstrated His love for me,
Died then arose to set me free.
I promised to put all sins away
So why oh why did I sin today?
When He took me in His fold,
He knew I bore that sinful mold.
Yet even when I grieve Him so,
He holds my hand and won't let go.
.
That blood He spilled so long ago,
Covered all my sins both new and old,
But like a toddler bound to fall,
He picks me up and dusts me off.
I know when I walk within His way,
His joy and peace bring glorious days.
I've experienced His gifts from up above.
Poured out on me from His deepest love.
Today I will confess to Him,
Forgive me Lord I did it again
He'll say, it's covered by my blood
Walk closer to me tomorrow
I'll search His word that brings me hope,
Restores my faith and helps me cope.
Someday He'll call me home on high,
With sin defeated my soul will fly.
