Amazing Grace Indeed

Once Was Lost / Now Am Found

LOST

The weight of the world on two shoulders.
Bearing.down.relentless.

Storms never ceasing.
Utterly defenseless, barely standing.

Alone.

Does it really have to be this way?
Fighting; in the keeping…can’t just give it away.

Two shoulders continue to drown.

SEARCHING

What is this…
want?

What is this…
need?

Something above and beyond…
this world.

What is this faith…
people speak of…
people die for?

There must be more.
There must be hope.

What else belongs in this hole
that never seems to fill?

FOUND

The Cross

True Love
The Greatest Cost

He sent His Son for me?
He gave His life for me?

A stone unturned.
The truth revealed.

The weight of my sins on His shoulders.
The weight of ALL sin for Him alone to bear.

Burdens lifted.
No longer alone.

A heart,
reborn
in Him.
