I Once… But Now

I once was called a real believer,

But now I am believing.

I once had known about the asking,

But now about receiving.

I once had known about my Jesus,

But now He knows my name.

I once had heard about the fire,

But now I feel the flame.

I once had heard about the Spirit,

But now He dwells inside.

I once had tried to read the Bible,

But now it is my guide.

I once had tried to sing the songs,

But now the songs just flow.

I once had tried to be a christian,

But now I’m one I know!

Ezra July 09
