The Wonders of His Grace
By Ken L Birks

Caught in an avalanche of sin and shame, the heart cries out.
Unable to focus, it wanders around in darkness full of doubt.
Is there any way out of the misery it faces through the tears.
Unable to cope with lost hope, the heart cries for deliverance.
In the bleakest of moments, the cry heard, a ray of light appears.

As a bright morning star, the way out is discovered, now revealed.
A gentle breeze blows, now revealing the wonders of His grace.
Sin and shame disappear, leaving behind His fragrance, unsealed.
What is this that has such a profound effect upon the weary soul?
Is this not the Son of God who comes revealing the wonders of grace?

With all condemnation and guilt released the soul cries out in relief.
What is this unmerited favor that saves the weary from the avalanche?
No longer smothered, breathing comes easily as anxiety departs in belief.
Touched by the wonders of His grace, peace floods the inner being.
With a sense of newness, comes a sense of levity, now freeing.

With just a touch, the mind is renewed, emerging with new identity.
New revelation fills the heart and mind with purpose and destiny.
As His divine nature is imparted, the senses are enlightened and refined.
With the eyes of understanding now open, spiritual treasures fill the mind.
Extreme gratitude comes forth as the wonders of His grace fill the heart.

As steps are taken into the wonders of His grace, faith resolves.
Freed from sin, divine abilities are experienced from faith choices.
No longer blinded by the works of the enemy, fear dissolves.
As grace abounds in abundance for all good works, the heart rejoices.
As seed is supplied, the wonders of His grace are multiplied.

From desperation to jubilation the heart of man now rejoices.
What was it that brought the heart so far from the avalanche?
Now being led in triumph over the issues of life, grace leads.
Touched by the wonders of His grace, all glory belongs to Him.
No longer beaten down by sin and shame, grace exceeds.
