Pursuing Love

An object of affection, yet unaware.
A pursuit of love, a life of despair.
A fatal journey to worlds unknown.
A widder path, I walked alone.

An erring soul, I downward trod.
A rebelious heart, a Sovereign God.
Though sinking deep, yet deeper still.
None could thwart the Master's will.

His plan was great, His grace was wide,
My sinful stains, I could not hide.
Shame that brought me to my knees,
Love that longed to bring me peace.

Not for myself, but unto Thee
The life I live's no longer me,
But only to His glory raise
Abundant joy and highest praise.
