'In The Arms Of Jesus' Poem by Becky LaPrarie

He takes me in each time I drift and lose my way
He brightens my darkest day

He patches me up when I fall apart at the seams
And within my heart his love light beams

He is the lily in my valley and he blooms all the time
And there is no mountain that together we cannot climb

He forgives me so much until I am ashamed
And lost in my guilt
But his love for me is a strong foundation
And it is well built

How could I inherit such love, hope, and peace,
And a bond with my creator that shall never cease

I cannot ever repay the debt I owe
But our Lord Jesus paid the price for me
And all so long ago

When I think of all he sacrificed for me
I wonder truly “how can this be”

His love is beyond any imagination
Upon the entire earth
For only God above found
In us humans any worth
