Dear Daughter


Unrepentant sinner run,
To the nail scarred hands held out.
Reach in faith past all your doubts;
Let His grace sing in you now.
Let your stubborn pride fall silent,
Grasp the path He lays before you.
Hold no longer to your sin;
Run in, dear daughter, run in.

Unbelieving child come kneel,
At the feet of Him who calls.
Listen to His voice and teaching;
Let His words redeem your fall.
Embrace the tender truths He gives.
Don't let self-pity within you live.
Let your faith renew your grasp;
Hold fast, dear daughter, hold fast.

Repent! Believe! These things dear child,
I'm telling you to do.
But one more thing I'd have you know,
To understand the glue.
You know that God is calling you
To run and to hold fast.
That same dear Lord reminds you too,
That He is first and last.
His sacrifice and binding love
Will keep you in His fold.
And none can ever take from Him
His precious daughter's soul.
