Down Memory Lane
It was like any other mornin,
any other day.
Till I felt Jesus calling me (he called me by name),
'My friend', he said, 'let's take a walk down memory lane'.
He took my hand and led me down the places I had been before,
And as we walked he pointed out to me,
The hurts I had and caused,
The pains I had and caused,
The sins I thought no one knew about,
The sins I thought no one cared about.
I was burning with shame by the time we were done,
yet He told me there was one last place to go.
'My friend', he said, 'let's take a walk down memory lane'.
He took my hand and led me down the places He had been before,
And as we walked He pointed out to me,
The hurts He healed and forgave,
The pains He healed and forgave,
The sins were brought to light,
The sins He washed till it was white.
And He brought me to the place,
the old familiar ground; Calvary.
And He reminded me all He bore on the Cross for me,
all He did to set me free..
It was like any other mornin,
any other day,
Till I heard Jesus calling me (He called me by name).
