A New Creation
By Effie Darlene Barba
A New Creation, oh did You say
With strength and love to now obey
The words You’ve spoken in my life
Your will I know, removing strife
For as you spoke new life in me
My blinded eyes were made to see
The truth of You, Your Glorious Might
That pushed the darkness out of sight
Sealed by your Spirit evermore
That now my spirit too can soar
High above the cares and pain
That would desire my mind restrain
Amazing love, your grace toward me
That took this heart and set it free
From selfish futile thoughts of mine
To focus on You, my Love Divine
For nothing else could mean so much
As breath you in, to feel your touch
So, when this world would call my name
To tempt me with its joys so vain
Please lift my head that I might view
Nothing else but only You
Then fill my mind, let it recall
Your Words of Truth, for that is all
I need to stand against all odds
And for the world to know that I am God’s
Beloved, Redeemed, and Blessed Child
Filled with His Strength, for He has smiled
His Grace upon someone like me
He took me in and set me free
For that I cannot help but be
In love with Him eternally.
