Everyone needs compassion
And love that never fails
Let mercy fall on me
When everyone needs forgiveness
Kindness of the Saviour
The Hope of the nation
Saviour, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
So take me as you find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything that i believe in
Now i surrender
Shine a light in and
let the whole world see
Singing, for the glory of the risen king
Jesus, Shine a light and
let the whole world see
Singing for the glory of the risen king

In life, we sin,
doing things we aren't exactly proud of,
even though we know we shouldn't be doing them.
Or maybe, we run away from God.
We think that there are things that are more important than God,
and that we can live well without Him.
But we're wrong.
When we realize it later,
we try to pretend that everything's alright,
or we become too ashamed to come back to the altar,
thinking we are already tainted in the eyes of the Almighty.
But that is a bigger mistake in itself.
Because like the prodigal son,
no matter what we've done in the past,
God will always be there, always, to receive us with open arms.
He died for us, to wash away our sins,
and what He really wants,
is for us to know that we're in the wrong,
and go back to Him in repentance.
Who says we can't start over again?
We can begin with a clean sheet, if we choose to.
