God's Love Awakens My Soul
- God's Love Awakens My Soul
- 🎸
- Satan has corrupted my soul.
- I am so proud and vain.
- Satan has poisoned my thoughts.
- I long to love You but fall short,
- oh, but fall short.
- The judgment of Your words
- makes me know myself.
- I see my corruption,
- that no part of me is good.
- No conscience, no sense,
- no dignity remain.
- Without salvation,
- I might live like one who is dead.
- You face danger to work among us,
- judge, refine and call us,
- renew our corrupted souls,
- then our lives have value.
- I will suffer all there is to suffer,
- offer my final devotion.
- I will be an honest man,
- and I will make no demands.
- 🎸🎸
- I am blessed,
- You exalt me so I can do my duty.
- Yet I disobey You
- and I muddle through it.
- Oh, I muddle through it.
- You expose who I am
- and my evil nature.
- I acknowledge in my words,
- but my heart still disobeys.
- You see man's corruption
- and You worry for him.
- Yet I have no conscience.
- I cannot comfort You.
- You face danger to work among us,
- judge, refine and call us,
- renew our corrupted souls,
- then our lives have value.
- I will suffer all there is to suffer,
- offer my final devotion.
- I will be an honest man,
- and I will make no demands.
- 🎸🎸🎸
- I have undergone Your judgment
- and painful refinement.
- I have seen just how great
- and how real is Your salvation!
- 'Cause of Your great patience,
- I can repay Your love.
- But I learn too late.
- My debt is too great.
- You face danger to work among us,
- judge, refine and call us,
- renew our corrupted souls,
- then our lives have value.
- I will suffer all there is to suffer,
- offer my final devotion.
- I will be an honest man,
- and I will make no demands.
