Eternity Gained

Lord no matter how I try, I will never know Your pain,
That You suffered on the cross, Your blood the ground below it stained,
And it is beyond my understanding, the sacrifice You made,
But I know that in my thinking, my remembering it will not fade,
For You saved me from myself, something I could never do,
The reason for this happening, is my believing in You,
I have left the devil's playground, to walk within You Way,
But it seems I'm still bumping into him, every single day,
For he still wants my soul, he don't want to let it go,
But now I am living in the presence, of the one from whom living waters flow,
And I'm sorry, yet I'm thankful, that You endured the pain,
For through Your sacrifice, eternity with You I've gained.
