Always Forgiven

This is the hymn of the month at our church. Every time we sing it, I'm so humbled by the mercy and grace God has shown me. If you're interested in hearing part of the song, go here, and click on Always Forgiven.

Always Forgiven
I don't deserve
to be your servant
and how much less
to be your child.
Anger and wrath -
sure condemnation
should be my portion,
my just reward.
Never have seen it
Never will know it
Your loving kindness
enfolds my life.
All you have shown me,
is grace, love and mercy
Now and forever
I am your child
Freely your pour out
your loving kindness
Father of grace
You welcome me in.
All of the sin
I have committed,
was placed upon
your righteous son.
And now you see me
through his perfection,
as if I'd never
done any wrong.
Always forgiven.
Always accepted.
No fear or judgement
before your throne.
