Let Jesus in

My life looked wretched and my dreams torn apart,
When I heard Jesus knock at my heart.

I opened it slowly, then bid Him come in,
Into my heart so marred by sin.

He told me I needed to let Him take care,
Of the burdens I could not bear.

Slowly I handed Him over My life,
Hoping this wouldn’t cause me more strife.

My heart, He washed as pure as snow.
And He showed me the way to go.

He rescued my life from total despair.
He helped me with the burdens I could not bear.

Together my burdens were easy to bear.
And from this time on, I knew He’d be there.

So when you have burdens, you cannot bear,
Your life looks dreadful, beyond repair.

Turn to Jesus, and offer a prayer.
Ask Him to help your life to repair.

All you have to do is come on bended knee.
He’s ready to help you and me.

Ask Him to help you through each day,
Watch Him transform your life, as He leads the way.
