What Have We Done?

We haven’t been always faithful.

When we should be fasting, we eat.

When He says go out, we stay in.

And when time for silence, we speak.

When Time for faith, we sometimes waiver.

When time to look up, we look down.

We’re not as loving as we should be.

And when time for smiles, we frown.

When time to read the Bible, we watch TV;

And our giving isn’t what it should be.

When we should be praying, we’re sleeping;

And when bound, we should be free.

We pick up our burdens after laying them down.

When He says stay in, we go out.

When a problem comes up we can’t handle,

We say we believe, but we doubt.

What have we done to deserve God’s love

Since we hardly do anything right?

We know we’re not what we should be

Though we try with all of our might.

So, what have we done to deserve God’s love

Or His spirit descending from above?

It’s not who we are or what we can do.

The answer is GRACE from above.
