Are You there Jesus, there for me
Does Heaven know my name
Your Father wish to set me free
From death's condemning shame
I know it's taken quite some time
Starting, so oft I'd fail
Again and again falling to crime
Ending, pending in jail
How oft, Lord God I would linger
Wallowing in stinking shame
Till feeling Salvation's finger
Love softly call my name
A gentle whisper, a faint breeze
A nudge a tender thought
Causing humbly to bend my knees
Submitting my report
Through shame, midst sin, I'd make a choice
Bowing, silent I'd pray
Till when hearing Your quiet voice
"Get up and walk my Way"
This last time so deeply touched me
Caused tingling deep within
Throughout the years completely free
Life's crown I've faith to win
How faithful, how loving You are
How mindful of my soul
Your ears Your eyes never are far
From guiding to love's goal
Eternal, I'll fail You never
God, Father, Saviour, Friend
Lord Jesus, NOTHING! can sever
Living joy, without end.....
