Left for Dead!

"Left for dead"
The words upon their lips
As He hung bounded
Bloodied by their tricks

Confused words He spoke
"You must die to live..
Be born again"
Was it all in vain?

Yet He lives in me
I can't explain
What seemed pleasing
I gave up with pain

Drawn to Him
Loneliness comes knocking
As I open the door
His grace walks in

Doubts and fear
Won't leave me alone
Yet By His name
Who can cast the first stone?

My flesh say "no"
My heart says "yes"
Burdens for blessings
Can I pass the test?

Her first love, Jesus,
"Left for dead"
What's His charge?
"Father, forgive them."
