I felt no worth
Until I knew
You died for me
I felt unloved
Until I knew
Unfailing love
I feared for lack
Until I saw
You care for me
I felt alone
Until I knew
You bide in me
I felt deprived
Until I knew
I’m heir with you
I felt afraid
Until I learned
Your power in me
I dreaded death
Until I knew
You conquered it
I shall fear naught
Because I know
Almighty God
