Greater Than Our Heart

Our conscience will remind us of our past,

To call us guilty o'er and o'er again.

It's first to blame, but to forgive it's last,

And quick to say repentance is in vain.

But if our heart condemns us, don't despair:

God's greater than our hearts and knows all things.

The final judgment happens over there,

And trumps the heart of paupers and of kings.

The conscience points to worthlessness and death,

The Holy Ghost will show us God forgives.

The sorrow of the world will steal our breath;

Conviction leads to Christ - with Him we live!

            Thus Satan will accuse and say we're wrong,

            Yet Jesus says we're His, where we belong.

            ~~~~~~~~~~~

For if our heart condemn us,

God is greater than our heart,

and knoweth all things.

1 John 3:20 KJV
