Don't Turn Away

When I Tell You I'm A Person Of Faith
I Do Not Say It To Make You Feel Out Of Place
Being A Christian Doesn't Mean I'm A Better Person Than You
I Just Want To Share What I've Discovered That Helps Carry Me Through
I Want To Share The Wonder Of Our Lords Grace
I Want To See Him Bless You And Put A Peaceful Smile On Your Face
I Want To Be Your Friend And Help You By Leading You To His Embrace
I Want To Share It All With You And Let You Know It's There For You To Partake
Yes I Have Committed Many Sins In My Past, Too Many To Count
I Gave Them All To Our Savior, Poured Them All Out
He Took Them From Me And Said I'm Forgiven By His Grace
That's Why He Gave His Life On The Cross, To Save The Human Race
He Told Me I Am A Creation Of God And It's Human To Make Mistakes
He Lifts Us When We Fail And Strengthens Us So That Our Fragile Spirits Do Not Break
He Empowers Us To Go On And Learn Lessons From The Errors We Make
He Wants Us To Love One Another, And Not Become Buried In Darkness And Shame
I Myself Am Far From Perfect And Do Not Claim To Be
I Still Make Many Mistakes, But I Am Learning
Now When I Mess Up I Acknowledge It, Ask For Forgiveness And Go On
I Pray For The Lord To Help Me Strengthen My Weakness, I Lean On Our Bond
I Know Deep Down Inside He Is With Me Every Step Of The Way
He Has Wonderful Plans For Each Of Us That One Day He Will Display
The Challenges We Face Now Are Preparing Us For That Wondrous Day
I Just Wanted To Share That Gift Of Love With You ,That's The Message I'm Trying To Convey
I Want You To Know That You Aren't Ever Alone
Jesus Is Looking After You, Waiting For You To Come Home
He Wants To Ease Your Burdens And Lighten Your Weary Step
He Promises Eternal Life So Our Time With Him Never Comes To An End
He Is Our Greatest Protector, Our Greatest Love, Our Greatest Friend
