With arms opened wide,
On the precious cross of Calvary,
He seemed to be saying,
This is how much I love you.
This is how wide my love reaches out for you.
Never have a second thought.
Or doubt His unending love.
For each time you are faced with Crises,
It breaks His heart.
He doesn’t want to see you hurt,
For it hurts Him too.
But you have to pass through some challenges,
So you can appreciate His concern.
As iron passes through fire,
So as to bring out its best.
So also do you pass through dangers.
So that the Shepherd can bring you back home.
He understands.
He feels what you feel.
He knows your frailty,
And He wants to help.
Open the door of your heart,
And let Him in.
Give Him your hand,
And don’t let go.
