Shall I examine myself 'til I die?

Drowned in the self I sought to purify?

All of my effrt can never cleanse

and empty my heart of deceit and of sins

By seeking my Christ i ciome face to face

With an entry into never ending grace

Glimpses of images made in His light

For, in my heart a divine delight!

Shall i awaken to grace and not shame?

Liberated to draw on Jesus's name

I will claim this freedom from sin's control

Live a life of grace, lifted up to be whole!

For those He feeds become part of the plan

When he lifts us up in His holy hands

He raises us up ans from self we are free

So in this freedom we can now see

What Christ Gave he became-Understand

That when He lifted the bread in His Holy Hands

He lifted himself the living bread

And now on the feeder we are fed!
