Come to Jesus

This song has been on my mind for a couple of weeks now. I cannot seem to get it out of my head. I guess I need to "blog" about it. The song is by Chris Rice and I am posting the lyrics. I so feel like this song is "my" song about the spiritual journey I have been on. This adoption has certainly given me cause to draw closer to Jesus. I know that is what He wants of me, to draw closer. And I am learning that as much as I want "Y" to come to me , Jesus wants me to come to Him even more.

Weak and wounded sinner
Lost and left to die
O, raise your head, for love is passing by
Come to Jesus
Come to Jesus
Come to Jesus and live

Now your burden's lifted
And carried far away
And precious blood has washed away the stain,
so Sing to Jesus
Sing to Jesus
Sing to Jesus and live

And like a newborn baby
Don't be afraid to crawl
And remember when you walk Sometimes we fall...
so Fall on Jesus
Fall on Jesus
Fall on Jesus and live

Sometimes the way is lonely
And steep and filled with pain
So if your sky is dark and pours the rain,
then Cry to Jesus
Cry to Jesus
Cry to Jesus and live

O, and when the love spills
over And music fills the night
And when you can't contain your joy inside,
then Dance for Jesus
Dance for Jesus
Dance for Jesus and live

And with your final heartbeat
Kiss the world goodbye
Then go in peace, and laugh on Glory's side,
and Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus and live
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus and live
