Postcard From Heaven

My dearest child,
The world holds out to you a surface sort of happiness that
Depends on favorable circumstances.
But I hold out joy.

The world offers relationship fraught with hidden agendas and self-serving motives.
I offer love, gracious and unconditional.

The world holds out blame and shame and condemnation.
I hold out forgiveness and the road to a new beginning.

The world rewards you with addictions and compulsion and momentary gratification.
But I will fill you with peace that passes understanding.

The world offers broken contract, vows, and promises.
I give you my Word, that never changes.

The world runs hot and cold.
One day you're valued and respected;
The next you're forgotten like yesterday's headlines.
But my character is love, and I am the same yesterday, today, and forever.

Oh, my child, do not fall in love with the world.
It holds out to you only an imitation of life, abundant and free.

HE SAW YOU

I cast all my cares on the Lord
For He careth for me
My poor wretched soul has
been bought
Through the nails He bore on
Calvary

The life I once led is now gone
Replaced is a new man of song
This debt that he paid
Led Him to the cross of
Calvary
Led him to the cross of
Calvary

Cos He saw you
while He was on the cross
He said "It's worth it. You
justify the cost."
So He stayed right there
and withstood the pain
To cover our sin and our
shame

Cos He saw you
while He was on the cross
He said "I love you;
I came to save the lost
Just believe my child,
and then you'll see
What you could be in me.
In me"

Two thousand years have
gone by
Soon we'll meet Him up high
It's funny but now I do see
Why He took the nails on
Calvary
Why He took the nails on
Calvary

He was bruised for our
transgressions
Mocked and whipped. He was
forsaken
Sent to die by His own creation
So how could we ask for
salvation?
