LORD I'M NOT WORTHY
by Lewis E. Thomas Lord I'm not worthy of Calvary Of your precious blood you shed for me. I'm not worthy of those nails in your hands For I was a sinner, an unrighteous man. I'm not worthy of those nails in your feet For I was a liar and I was a cheat! I'm not worthy of the shame you knew As the sky turned black and was no more blue. I'm not worthy of the cross you bore For I was a pimp and I was a whore. A crown of thorns was placed on your head We pressed it down until your blood ran red. I'm not worthy of the beating in Pilate's Hall Of those crimson stripes that healed us all! As they screamed outside "Let's crucify Him!" You never once stopped loving them! I'm not worthy of the mocking you took For I was a pervert, I was a crook. I'm not worthy of the sweat that became blood For I was a drunkard and I was a crud. I'm not worthy of those tired weary feet As you started your mission and began to preach. I'm not worthy of the Robe and Crown That you left in Heaven as you came down. To be born in a stable outside the Inn That you might save me from my sin! I'll never be worthy for this I see Of the price you paid at Calvary! I thank you so much for saving my soul You gave me something more precious than gold! As I face each sunrise new Let me tell someone of you. Help me to show them Calvary That they too can be set free. No, I'm not worthy for this I see That's why I'll always love that man from Galilee. Lewis E. Thomas as given by God ...
