.. A Disciple of Christ ..
 

.. Beneath the cross I lay my claim ..
.. My burden and my flame ..
 

.. I cast my life at Jesus' feet ..
.. I bear His holy name ..

.. Through thorn and shadow, scourge and scorn ..
.. I tread the narrow way ..

.. In pain I find redemption's song ..
.. In night I meet the day ..
 

.. Forgiveness flows from wounded hands ..
.. Salvation's riverwide ..

.. I drink its grace, I wash my sins ..
.. Where dying hearts abide ..

.. Accepted in my brokenness ..
.. Embraced by Love divine ..

.. A chosen soul, I walk the road ..
.. Where mercy's lamp does shine ..
 

.. Reborn .. 

 

.. I woke in shadow, circling night ..
.. A single lamp so fiercely bright ..

.. No weight, no pain, no body's hold ..

.. A spirit warm, a heart grown bold ..

.. A voice within, my other half ..

.. Rejoiced to leave that hollow path ..

.. “Glad to be out,” it cried with mirth ..

.. Freed from the darkness of the earth ..

 

.. I knew the crash, the final breath .. 

.. Then felt God’s love surpass all death .. 

.. Like mother’s arms in tender fold ..

.. His mercy wrapped my soul in gold ..

.. Twenty minutes felt like years .. 

.. Yet time bent soft beyond our fears ..

.. Then doctors pulled me to the mire ..

.. Three weeks in tubes, but saved by fire ..

 

.. Now living, whole — a mind made new ..

.. I carry heaven’s quiet view ..

.. A glimpse of truth, both fierce and mild ..

.. The soul returns, forgiven, filed ..

.. Praise to the Lord who drew me near ..

.. Who calmed my dread and quieted fear ..

.. From shadow’s seam to morning’s face ..

.. I walk again by sovereign grace ..
