HOME PAST ISSUES

Greater
When I have fallen,
You have picked me up.
Though my sins have been great,
Your love has been greater.
In my darkest hours,
Your light shines brighter.
And in my sorrow,
You have brought me joy.

When my feet have faltered,
Your arms have caught me.
Though I have been dirty,
You have washed me clean.
In my hopelessness and fear,
You have had compassion.
And all the painful tears,
You have shed them too.
