My Knight In Shining Armor
August 9, 2013
My knight in shining armor has no armor to behold
No sword to fight
No shield to block
Just a simple cross of gold
A great price he paid on my behalf
No man could measure up
To this beautiful heavenly Son
Who gave his precious blood
A cross on which he gave his blood
To fight for sinner's sake
This man would risk his everything
For an unrepentant slave
I did not earn his love or his valiant show of mercy
But this I know with all my heart
I'll never again be barren or thirsty
Jesus, oh Jesus, the Heavenly Son of God
None can compare to the price you paid with blood
No knight in shining armor do I want, or ask, or seek
When the man I always needed is beckoning: "Come to me".

This is a piece I wrote after years of struggling with depression. The one thing, the only thing, that saved me from committing suicude was giving my life to God and asking Him to save me. Many people may call me crazy, but I don't care. No matter what anyone says I will hold on to this truth: That Jesus is alive and that He loves not just me, but all of us; no matter how sinful we may be. All we need to do is just call out to Him and He promises to save us.
