The Crown Jewel


I John 1:5-10

This is the message which we have heard,
God is of the light according to His Word;
For in Him there is never anything dark,
Staying on the pathway that you embark;
To say we join Him but darkness prevail,
Then we lie and the truth can not unveil;
If we walk in light then we become light,
One in God sharing His power and might;
United in faith with one another in Christ,
Cleansed with His blood when sacrificed;
If we have no sin we deceive own within,
But by confessing God forgives us of sin;
For God is upright and to His Word true,
To say having no sin the Word not in you.
The wage of sin is death to end your life,
Finding you eternally in turmoil and strife;
In being truthful brings you forgiveness,
Freedom from all that you still transgress;
God has many jewels in a crown of love,
The crown jewel is forgiveness thereof.
