Unnamed Poem -- The Call

I can't believe You love me
Still the way You do,
The way I chased worldly things,
And ran away from You.

I thought I knew what was good;
It looked like pure gold...
But what I took as perfect,
Caused damage to my soul.

I barely heard You calling --
Still, it stronger grew.
And as I heard You louder,
I then turned back to You.

But -- O!  How could You love me?
I, Your sinful child...
Yet I ran into Your arms,
Cheered by Your happy smile.

You welcomed me and loved me;
Made me whole again.
Now I climb the higher road,
Unfettered by my sins.
