Do you know Jesus

For how am I to know Thee
if I do not introduce myself to You
These rags I wear, the words I speak
are not worthy for Your view

Outward appearance, and composure
which makes me look so cool
the way I act, the things I say
only myself, is who I fool

Others can not see
whats in my heart, I hide
Secretly my greed and lust
they feed my haughty pride

For when I come to You in prayer
the words that I let slip
It is not You that will condemn me
my own heart, will read its scripts

The truth will not be hidden
Your light it shines right through
My sins they are exposed in me
Of course, I always knew

So first I must confess to you,
This is the way we all begin,
I accept the blood of Jesus
to wash away my sin

Now, I come to know you
my food ,Your daily word
Your justice, grace and mercy
my eyes no longer blurred

I am so sorry we never met before
And Your love, I have not known
Lord Jesus nice to meet you
Your always welcome in my home
