"life, death & a rebirth" by crystal renaud

i’m a sinner

i’ve gossiped
i’ve worshipped idols
i’ve stolen
i’ve lied
i’ve abused
i’ve lusted
i’ve grudged
i’ve coveted
i’ve disobeyed
i’ve betrayed
i’ve envied

i’ve lived
i’ve died
i’ve been born again
because
He lived
He died
He rose again

for me
for you
for everyone who accepts
His gift of revolutionary love
the gift of forgiveness
the promise of forever

i’ve lived
i’ve died
i’ve been born again
because
He lived
He died
He rose again

perfect i will never be
a sinless life i cannot lead
but by his blood i am cleansed
and through his forgiveness i am free

i’ve lived
i’ve died
i’ve been born again
because
He lived
He died
He rose again

to
live like Christ is to die
to die is to rise again

"This righteousness from God comes through faith
in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, For all have sinned and fall
short of the glory of God, and are justified
freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus." Romans
3:22-24
