You Love Me

For every vile deceitful thing I am

You love me

For ever doubtful thought of shame

You love me

I offer up my anger and my grief

In tender mercy You behold my unbelief

And You love me

For ever step I walk in Judas’ shoes

You love me

For every tender blessing I refuse

You love me

In recompense for my complaint and greed

Your endless grace provides my humble need

As You love me

For every deed of foolish ignorance

You love me

For every blatant wasted, second chance

You love me

Mercy, compassion, like an ocean roll

To wash the sin-stain from my wretched soul

For You love me
