On My Knees


by Kaitlyn (me)

Finally I am on my knees to stay.
You see, my prideful heart thought I deserved to stand!
And O how it laboured to pay
In some way for the sacrifice You made.

The thing I didn't understand
Was that the cost for my life was immeasurable!
How do you set a price for Christ, a life of such brand!?
Surely it's a debt beyond what I am able!

All my works were in vain
For my heart was mistaken, misled by wrong assumptions.
I now see that I have nothing that will bring You gain.
I am driven to my knees and here I lay my confessions.

I never would have thought
I could be so full with my forehead to the ground!
Here I will stay, for my life You have bought.
No more singing selfish pride, Your praises will be my only sound.
