As God Redeems

 By Mark Bishop

Praise to God that He would gain
His glory from my guilt and shame

That simple lives he would redeem
and cast our gaze on things unseen

So when life tempts me to despair
I'll trust my future to His care

He beckons me and takes the lead
for Satan's arrow's shan't impede

The fallen light of morning star
Would show my heart encased in tar

But Christ has shown me light anew
I've come to find that this is true

From golden rays on Calvary
No shadowed form is cast by me

For life to full at last I know
No sin concealed, no shame in tow
