BEING WORTHY

 


Did You count me amongst

Your valuable host

As we met in the councils of heaven?

Did I stand strong and ready

To defend Your godship;

To smite the enemy,

To secure Your path to my eternity?

Was I brave and willing to carry the cross

Some of the way to Calvary?

Did I weep with you in the Garden

And held You as You bore the burdens of mortality?

Did I wipe the sweat of Your brow

As I wept for You and weep even now?

Did I promise to bear Your name

Etched in my mortal heart for all to see?

Am I now worthy to carry Your sacrifice

With me into eternity?

CALVARY

 


I carried my cross to the foot of Calvary

While you carried yours to the top

I cried bitter tears over the injustices of my life

While you bled valiantly for all that was lost

I carried my hurts like a badge

So scornfully proud and spiritually poor

While you rose to the heights of your exalted throne

Perfected, ennobled and infinitely more

You are so high

And I am so low

I consent to climb to Calvary's top

I consent to be lifted to your throne
