A Drop of Your Blood

by Shy Leigh


I'm not worth a
drop
of Your blood.
I'm not worth a single
tear
You cried.
I'm not worth a
bead
of Your sweat,
I should have been the
one
who died.

it is very true. none of us actually deserve His forgiveness. i guess thats why it's called grace.

Jesus bore the cross that should have been ours to bear.. I agree with Kimmie & John, this is really wonderful.
