Praise to Raise

II Corinthians 2:12-17

With preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ,
Who then opened a door so highly priced;
For within my spirit in having had no rest,
Sacrificed of another to allow me be blest;
That is why so many thanks be unto God,
His compassion of someone that is flawed;
I manifest the savior remindful everywhere,
Saving others from the depths of despair;
Ensuring that they do not perish at death,
That there's a life after their last breath;
As who is sufficient acquiring these things,
Not in corruption of the Word who brings;
Rather those in sincerity within His sight,
Being inheritors of the truth and the light.
Ever wonder of being bought at a price,
Through Jesus Christ and His sacrifice;
Worthy or not God felt we were of value,
For allowing our spirits to still continue;
Because of this we should always praise,
Knowing that after death he shall raise.
