I Stand

written: 03/05/99

You looked into my dark heart,

    And still saw the beauty of your creation.

I stand amazed by your grace.

 

You saw my sins, the harm I have brought,

    And still saw the wonder of a child.

I stand in awe of your love.

 

You saw me as I stumbled, bringing others with me,

    And still saw the leader I could be.

I stand in wonder of your forgiveness.
