My Life Changed

My life was changed that day,
And not a moment too soon!
With selfless love and tenderness
That still makes my heart swoon.

My life was changed that day,
I’m awed, that on a whim.
She fought the crowds that scorned her,
Just to touch His dowdy hem.

My life was changed that day,
I’ve known no greater thrill.
Than when this sagacious vagabond,
Uttered those two words, “Be still.”

My life was changed that day,
And those that love Him, too!
As He cried unto the Heavens,
“They know not what they do!”

My life was changed that day,
They denied him, one, two, three.
My life was changed that day,
When my Savior died for me.
