Not I,
But God
by
Barbara Philbrook
Who
brought me to where I am today,
to the place where I believe that in order to
survive that I must pray?
Not I but
God!
Who is
responsible for the faith I have that someday I will be
with my father above,
to spend an eternity surrounded by love?
Not I but
God!
Who wipes
my eyes when they overflow with tears,
and gives me a sense of calm when I am filled with
fears?
Not I but
God!
Who
planned for me to one day learn that salvation was
free,
and then opened the Word of God that his truths I'd
see?
Not I but
God!
Who sent
the Holy Spirit to live in my heart,
and made me aware that He'd do all the changing in
me and that surrendering was my part?
Not I but
God!
Who sent
his son that We might live,
and then made sure that the facts of this free gift to
the whole world he did give?
Not I but
God!
Who
watches over each and every one who was ever born,
and sent his son to be crowned with a crown of thorns?
Not I But
God!
Who asks
only that we believe and accept what is true,
who wants so very badly to be accepted by you too?
Not I but
God!
Who had
set the price that must be payed for our sin,
and then went and had his son pay the price so that
we would be allowed in?
Not I but
God!
Won"t
you accept what God is offering to you,
then when we all are called home to Heaven Guess who
will be waiting with open arms to welcome you.
Not I but
God!
