What a difference
Have you not met my Lord
I asked someone the other day
What a difference he has made
In my life from day to day.
I thought I knew myself
And my every limitation
But when the master looked into my heart
And my every motivation.
He infiltrated every place
I thought hidden from his view
Well that is what I had thought
I really thought "I" knew.
So, since I opened up my heart
To Christ's all knowing gaze
He has cleansed and filled my life with His
And I am just amazed.
You only have to ask
The people where I live
And I know what they will say
"What a difference...Jesus makes
In a Life from day to day"
