I gazed at the heavens, and the blue skies above,
To be reminded this day of the depths of His Love.
He spoke the creation with His Own Spoken Word,
And that same gentle voice is what I had heard
The day I met Jesus, and He gave me new start,
As He knocked on my door, and He entered my heart.
What a Wondrous Lord, what a loving, dear Savior,
Who came to a shell and in Him, I found favor.
I will forever wonder what He saw in me
To die on a cross to set my soul free.
O, Lord, My Messiah, My Life, My King,
Unto You My God, Your praises I bring.
Before Your own Throne, I sing forth Your beauty,
Out of sheer adoration and not out of duty.
Dearest Lord Jesus, may You help me to walk,
And be a doer of Word not just talking the talk.
For my heart does reach for the things of Your Throne,
And to walk with You always, so I'm never alone.
You will be with me till the end of the age,
To The Fulfillment of Scripture, to the last printed page.
Thank You, Dear Father, for sending Your Son,
And restoring this life which was once so undone.
Evangelist Ilona Henry Afamefuna
