invitation to a changed heart


repentance
the sacrifice of a broken and contrite heart
to a Saviour who sacrifices
the glory of heaven for a stinky manger
a throne for a cross
ruling heaven for tending sheep
all for us who despise him
my heart is filthy with my pride
my sin blankets it in a shroud

God of heaven who sent His son
Jesus who willingly died
for the sake of my lousy heart
forgive me
create in me a clean heart
one that desires you
it is the gift I have to give
the only one you want

Who brings this gift to Jesus this Christmas?
