No Regret
Remarkably with no regret I face each coming day
As I accept God's cleansing wave that's washed my sin away
That though I've stumbled fallen short and failed Him oft before
I know by grace He cleanses me as I adore Him more
By rising in the morning taking time with Him in prayer
Affirming that I have on doubt He's always waiting there
Again to place His robe on me and clothe me by that grace
That makes my soul acceptable before my Father's face
And therein also purging me from all the things I've done
That caused the loss and suffering of His most perfect Son
Who gladly bore my sins and shame and died upon the tree
That is the emblem of God's love and light for you and me
And therein I have also found that perfect peace of mind
That does no focus on the past and all I've left behind
But rather focuses on Him Who could not love me more
And shares with me the promises of what He has in store
For those who daily come to Him and seek to be His own
Who know no matter what happens in Him they're not alone
But constantly are walking with His angels by their side
And also have His Holy Spirit as their faithful Guide
Who whispers His assurance to be heard along our way
And sometimes even puts His words within the things we say
That for His light to others we might also truly be
A testimony of the Truth that lives in you and me
But if I am too hurried too excited for the day
And take off in my own pursuits without that time to pray
I set myself for failure and embarrassment for Him
As well as one great stumbling block that stops the way for them
Who need me more than they perceive to take that time with God
That they might find encouragement each day they watch me trod
That path with similarities to what they face each day
That helps them know with certainty there is a better Way
So 'tis my prayer for you and me more than these lips can say
No matter what the circumstance God help us still to pray
And draw us ever closer to what You want us to be
That we might share Your perfect love for all eternity
1 Thessalonians 7-18; Psalm 55:17; John 3:16-17
