Poem for Today

The Presence of Angels
I stand in the presence of angels,
To gaze at the foot of the cross:
My tears fall like dew in the evening
To know that my gain was Your loss.

I kneel down before You, a sinner,
As wretched and poor as I am:
Then stand, in blessed forgiveness,
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb.

How can I ever repay such love,
That for freedom has set me free?
Save only to look on Your face,
And give what I have, which is me.

Use me to serve You forever,
In the presence of angels still:
Take me and teach me Your pathways,
To walk evermore in Your Will.
