Lord, this soul I won for You.

Lord,we have come to the knowledge of Your love
By Your sacrifice for the souls unworthy as ours
We reflect upon the times we greived You
With our callous disregard
Yet it is Your desire
That we should not remain apart
No greater love exists
Than that which You gave Your life for ours

Lord, we want to grow
in the likeness of Your image
Grant us
Humility, as You did Moses
Courage, as You did Joshua
Wisdom, as You did David
Love, as You did Peter
Strength, as You did Paul

Even as we face oppositions
Both from without and within
For there is poverty, social mores
and political issues we can not control
There are absent of Your Truth
Give us the courage we need to testify for You
The wisdom to know what to speak
And the eloquence to speak it
Lord, we are ready to take up Your commission
To fulfill Your desire to save all

We did wonder
if all the hardships and loneliness
In exchange for that one soul is worth it?
But as we turn to look at Jesus on the cross
We realize we have so much more to do
We'll make disciples of these people for You
Different though they seem
For You Yourself showed no partiality
Because they are Your children too

Lord, we will love as You first loved us
For if we have faith but have no love, we are nothing

Love without Truth is blind
And love without the Holy Spirit's guidance and power is short-lived
By Your grace
We have the Truth
We have the Holy Spirit

Until that day
when we meet the Lord
We shall faithfully spread
The message of His love
And when it is our time
To face the Lord
We will be able to say
Lord, this one soul I won for You
