THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE STREET
From the opposite side of the street,
How could it be that the twain should meet.?
Jesus washed my eyes with tears that I might see,
But for His loving grace and mercy that could be me,

Born into a Christian home I was seven when Jesus found me,
Throughout life’s journey He has been so real to me,
I look around me at a world of hurting people,
Father, I pray, help me to see your heart for people.

The desire of my heart is to see the hurting set free,
To know this Jesus who is so real to me,
So my friends though I come from the other side of the street,
My life was changed when with Jesus I met.

He’s my best friend and I just want to share,
That Jesus melted my heart and I really care,
His love for you is a love beyond all measure,
He wants to share with you his wonderful treasure.

On the Cross of Calvary my Saviour died,
He wants to forgive all that you ever did,
A new life He promises to you. So come to Jesus let Him make your life anew.

Irene McGough 2007
