Love Yourself
I was sitting at a conference filled with writers for the Lord - Though our writing styles were
different - Our hearts were in one accord - As the speaker talked I listened but then
something caught my eye - I saw a cross up on the wall and the Lord was about to die - I
really tried to concentrate on what the speaker said - But Christ was looking straight at me
and before He bowed His head - His eyes full of compassion began to fill with tears - He knew
I had been struggling to love myself for years. Before He died He said to me - You must
learn to love yourself as much as I love you and My Father up above - After Jesus said these
words His Spirit left the earth - But He let me know - He showed me just how much my life
was worth - When I left the room that night I knew I had been touched - By the hand of
Christ my Lord who loves me very much - Still sometimes I find myself not being kind to me
Then I think of that one night when Jesus made me see - That I'm a special masterpiece and
I'm precious in His sight - When all I see is darkness - I'm surrounded by His light
