My Lord Told Me

My Lord told me that His love would not fail, as He showed me a hand that was pierced by a nail
He told me I’m safe, telling the tale, then my eyes became clear, I saw what life entails
I saw beauty without measure and felt loves complete peace, I willfully surrendered but felt no trace of defeat
I listened to my heart and caught the rhythm of its beat as He says our hearts are one and that this is where love meets
He told me that I’m His and He'd never let me go, He said He thought He’d tell me, He just thought that I should know
If there ever comes a time in life that’s feeling really low, to look back to where our heart met so that love can begin to show
I smiled as I heard a melody of joy dancing through the sky. It was my Lord singing this song to me of words I can’t deny
He said He fought the battle and won it for me, there’s no need in asking why
Because He’s true, loving, faithful, and kind with Him I will never die
I cried at the sound of His words for me, my tears soaking my face
He reached down and wiped the tears away and said “no need for tears in this place”
I said Lord why would you do this for me my life has been such a disgrace
He said say no more for it is done and my Father has dismissed your case
Have trust in Me as I in you, your life begins today, though you may stumble along the path I’ll help you keep your way
I’ll never let you fall again, never lead you astray. For your sins have all been forgiven my love, and for them you will never pay.
