Salvation Through the Cross

God’s ways are not our ways,

His thoughts are not our thoughts;

They appear as contradictions,

But they’re treasures to be caught.

When God enters the paradigm,

And we surrender our lives to Him,

We will see how He transforms

Our minds and hearts within.

There is joy in sorrow,

There is victory in surrender;

There is strength in weakness,

There is righteousness for the sinner.

There is peace in the storm,

Love in the face of hate;

There is mercy for the guilty,

There is holiness for the depraved.

The humble will be exalted,

The proud will be cast down;

The leader is a servant,

Meekness will be a crown.

God became man

To find those who are lost,

To make blind eyes see,

To bring salvation through the cross.

Mother

When I was hungry, she fed me.

When I was sick, she cared for me.

When I was weak, she nurtured me.

When I was lost, she guided me.

When I was hurt, she stood by me.

When I was blind, she helped me see.

When I was a boy, she made me a man.

When I was alone, she was my biggest fan.

She is not perfect; she does make mistakes.

She shed tears and sweat; life is not a piece of cake.

But I’ll never forget her strength of character,

And how she’s always working to make us better.

Without her, I wouldn’t be the person I am.

Because of her, I will do what I can.

No one in this world can replace her,

And I love her, because she’s my mother.
