O the bitter shame and sorrowO the bitter shame and sorrow,
That a time could ever be,
When I let the Savior’s pity
Plead in vain, and proudly answered,
“All of self, and none of Thee!”
Yet He found me; I beheld Him
Bleeding on th’accursèd tree,
Heard Him pray, “Forgive them, Father!”
And my wistful heart said faintly,
“Some of self, and some of Thee!”
Day by day His tender mercy,
Healing, helping, full and free,
Sweet and strong, and ah! so patient,
Brought me lower, while I whispered,
“Less of self, and more of Thee!”
Higher than the highest heavens,
Deeper than the deepest sea,
Lord, Thy love at last hath conquered:
Grant me now my supplication,
“None of self, and all of Thee!”
Looking unto JesusLooking unto Jesus, Crucified,
He, on the cross for me who died,
To find in His shed blood,
Our ransom, our pardon and peace.
Looking unto Jesus, Risened,
Whose righteousness makes us so,
Though unworthy as we are,
To Him in His name we're drawn.
Looking unto Jesus, Glorified,
He who gave repentance,
And forgave my sins.
I will always love thee,
As you have loved me so.

Lord I say I love You,
But my actions says I don't
Lord I say I have faith,
But faith without works is dead.
Be it a time of suffering,
Though chaos seems to reign.
I pray I will rejoice
In hope and peace you bring.
Be it a festive season,
There're rainbows after the storm,
I pray that that I will giove thanks,
Worshipping you in ardent praise.
May I show them my faith,
By my works, my love and my life.
May I love those around me,
For I once was, still is and always be loved,
By You who taught me how...
